Yes, it’s true: we love the Sirius radio that came with our new Mazda3. (Photo essay forthcoming.) The Wikipedia page for Sirius offers some geeky details (for those into that sort of thing); for example, there are terrestrial repeaters in major cities to improve reception for receivers that cannot hear any of Radiosat 1, 2, or 3. Other places to poke around: SIRIUS Backstage, SIRIUS Fan Network, DogstarRadio’s satellite orbit and terrestrial repeater map, more info on the SIRIUS constellation from Spaceflight Now.
