FYI:
CBC Radio 1 is on Sirius Satellite channel 137.   XM's "Canada 360"
on XM channel 244 is crap.
I learned this traveling through Atlantic Canada this summer...I'd be
listening to an interesting CBC show on terrestrial radio and it
would fade out and my XM would not pick up CBC.  :(

If you want to hear Canadian "public radio" on Satellite, get Sirrius.
