What should I know about buying a Sirius Satellite Receiver and Service?

We've had Sirius for two years now. It works great in the car, great in the boombox, but so-so at the house. You just have to make sure the receiver is placed properly. If we mounted the house receiver better I'm sure it would be better. We have the starmate and the only thing I have trouble with is finding a station with no fuzz - my starmate won't get the low FM station numbers but my husband's does (89.5 or something) and his has no fuzz. You'll need the car kit for sure and make sure you check out The Sirius Store (not linked from the Sirius site - search google) for your car accessories - i.e. the radio mount for your vehicle - I have a mounted swivel for mine, I don't like the suction cup. Enjoy - I like it!
