Yeah. Couldn't get anything recognizable with my AOR AR8600 and an LPY2
antenna. Being digitally modulated, it wouldn't be useful for anything
anyway. I think the antennas for the satellite radio receivers are
amplified, so without that extra gain, a typical receiver couldn't really
pick it out of the noise floor.

Just wondering if anybody with a 2ghz scanner has been able to detect the

XM
satellite signal.Seems you should hear the carrier but don't know if it
would be WFM or not. Its up by 2.3 to 2.45 i think.

Any AOR owners try it yet?.
