If you have it, could you post your answers, and your thoughts.

1. What is the real start-up cost?
2. Is it really commercial free?
3. The reception is suppose to be flawless, coast to coast. Have you experienced any loss of signal?
4. If signal loss. Was there a storm?
5. Is the residual monthly fee acceptable for the service received?

Thanks.

Thanks.I have XM.

1: 5 or 10 dollars. I forgot.
2: I believe, but I don't listen to all the channels.
3: I have never lost it except in a storm. Even in a underground parking garage.
4: Only during really a bad storm. It only gets echo-y for the most part though.
5: Yes. You get some 100 channels for 10 bucks I think it was. Plus I get 30 weather & traffic channels and 10 live college sports channels.
