The Sirius satellites, travel an orbit called "Geosynchronous"

The XM satellites remain in a fixed "Geostationary" orbit.

Just a cool pic that shows what they do. Technology is AMAZING!

Stern was funny back in the 80's and early 90's. After his wife left him, all he seems to do is whine whine whine about how much it sucks to be him. He just got way too annoying for me so I rolled. Apparently now all he does is try and jam as much stuff up a lady as he possibly can.

Yeah ... that's entertaining ....

No thanks ....
