What's funny is, someone will buy the pants in order to get the radio
only to discover, when they get it home, that it's nothing but a high
tech paperweight without subscription to XM radio!!

In the first place, it's about the size of a Philips Cassette box.
Second, it comes activated for 3 months.

All that means that the unpleasant discovery will have to wait for
three months....which will make it even more unpleasant. It sure is
nice of JCPenney to make us all such a good "deal".

This is actually a pretty good deal! I just wish Sirius would develop some
decent receivers. Theirs are so damned big and ugly.

You know, if you bought them at Goodwill they probably had a head start in
the wearing thin department. Are you -really- that stupid?

I am not getting into any more ****ing contest (at least for a while
anyway) with y'all MORONS (and y'all know who you are) with
anybody,that's crap! By the way,the Dockers pants that I bought at the
Goodwill thrift store for $4.00 were almost brand new.I need to go to
the foodstore now for coffee.

Quick, before you go, tell us which roads you will take and how far it
is and what kind of coffee and how much it is. Or maybe you buy that at
the goodwill store too!

a "subscription" to AC power or a "subscription" to batteries!

TANSTAAFL? I had to look that one up! "There ain't no such thing as a
free lunch."

Anyway, if you can't find an AM or shortwave radio that works without a
subscription to XM, there's something very, very wrong. I have lots of
radios, and while they do require batteries or AC power, not one--and I
mean not a single one--requires a subscription to XM.

Robinson Road to JR Lynch Road and I take a right on that Road going

better than I do and that is no lie.$32.00 for a big 34 pound baggy of

money can buy.I don't give my doggy junk!) and I go to Greenway Drive to

But they all require subscriptions to AC power and/or batteries, yet
you have no problem with that, do you?

Guess it's all in how one defines 'subscription'. Most folks don't think of AC
power and/or batteries as being subscription services.

What's the big deal about one more (satellite
radio)?

Does this mean you're interested in receiving my monthly newsletter?
It'll just be 'one more' subscription, after all.

Kinda like how nearly every radio in the world is a paperweight
without a "subscription" to AC power or a "subscription" to
batteries!

Better fewer subscriptions than more, no? If you like subscribing to
things, please send me a check for 20 dollars every month and I'll sign
you up for my newsletter.

Steve

Advertising is insulting. I prefer to pay a few bucks for the
opportunity to not be insulted so much.

Subscrbe to Philip Swann's, www.tvpredictions.com email newsletters
and his Swanni Sez email newsletters.I have been getting them for about
five years or more and you can't beat the subscription price,,, they are
free,Free,FREE.

Sirius has much of the same programming that is disappering from your
shortwave radio. In rich, noise-free hifi sound. 24 hours a day.

Here's the thing, though....I have a lot of radios, too, and it's very rare that
ANY of them are worth turning on, considering when I listen, a problem which is
even more pronounced when I travel. So, to have the choices I want, and in a
way no different than the magazines, newspapers, satellite TV and other services
I pay for, satellite radio is the means I use to (legally!) acquire the
programming I will listen to. And, as TANSTAAFL suggests, your "free" radio
isn't really "free", either.

No, quite a few people consider those to be "majik". Right along with cee-ment

"radios" that require a monthly subscription just to listen to them are
intended for canaDUHians.Evidently it is True because y'all canaDUHians

This event actually has a lot of significance.

They are starting to give the radios away. I was expecting that to happen.

I think you will see a variety of deals now that include free satellite radios.
Soon nobody will be paying for them.

And there will be all sorts of discount subscription deals too.

It is a gradual move to mass distribution.

I'm surprised you doubt him. The man's gone to great effort in proving his
cerebral agility but you *still* question his particular gift..or lack of it.
Given different circumstances, surely he'd be offended instead of merely
displaying that dxAceish bewilderment.

On the contrary, I think it was to be expected.

Don't stop there, keep going. How about property taxes and mortgages?

Owning property is a subscription service, courtesy of the government.

**** you, asshole. You are not the mayor if this board.

You didn't look very carefully.

This is Sirius channel 115:

On the contrary, I looked very closely. The vast majority of the
programs listed there are programs that you can receive on smallest,
cheapest shortwave receiver out there, using only the whip.

Is this what's supposed to get me excited about Sirius? You must be
kidding.

And I can already hear BBC World Service News 24 hours a day, with my
choice of multiple frequencies at any given time.

One thing I haven't looked at yet is the Sirius channel that features
military comms, amateur radio operators and so on. Can you provide a
link to that channel's schedule, please?

This is a 'radio' board for the most part, and satellite crap just don't cut it.

But, for a fellow who can't read, and certainly can't tell time it probably fits

My HF radios work great. Unfortunately, aside from a few hours a
day,
the programming is predominantly end-timers and prophesisers.

Have you considered the possibility that you are xenophobic?

I don't think I'm xenophobic. I enjoy learning about foreign peoples
and cultures. In fact, that's one of the reasons why I enjoy shortwave.

If you're only able to get end-timers or prophesisers for all but a few
hours a day, then you are *definitely* having a problem....either with
your receivers or, most likely, your antenna(s). If you'd describe the
problem in more detail, the folks in the group here might be able to
help you.

A radio music station here in Jackson plays some Knee Deep in Bluegrass
music every day and there are no commercials and there is another radio
station here that plays Country Music with no commercials www.us963.com
(us963 where God isn't dead) us963 does make some pertinent
announcements from time to time about things related to us963 and
upcoming events,but they are not the usual crappy commercials on some
other radio stations.There are many local Jackson area radio
stations,Christian,Music,Sports,Talk Shows on the radio (free to listen
to Radio Stations) around here.(do a search for them if you want to) I
don't really know how many of them have no commercials because I haven't
ever checked them all out before.I have my favorite AM and FM Radio
Stations I like to listen to.Why should I pay to listen to Radio
Stations when the AM and FM Radio Stations I like the best are free.The
Radio Stations around here are not slanted and biased either.
