What is a portable satellite radio?

A portable satellite radio is a satellite radio signal that is broadcast to cover a much wider geographical range than your regular radio signals. A portable satellite radio allows you to take and listen to your radio in just about any location.

Portable satellite radios will let you listen to satellite radio even when you are not in your vehicle or home. Portable satellite radios are very comparable to the standard portable music players such as iPods and other mp3 players which have been designed for listening to audio on the go. The satellite radios feature built-in antennas that can receive signals from the broadcasting satellite.  This allows you to continue to receive up to the minute radio service where ever you go. For example, you are able to listen to your satellite radio while driving your car to the lake and then take it with you on the boat. Reception has been known to be tricky though. If you are being blocked by buildings or in the forest the reception can be poor. However, you will usually find that the best reception is received when you are outdoors and in the open.

Portable satellite radio service is based on a monthly fee system. You can enjoy commercial free music stations as well as stations dedicated to news, sports, comedy and talk shows.

In the United States and Canada, the primary provider of portable satellite radios is Sirius XM Radio. The portable satellite receivers come with accessories such as headphones and rechargeable batteries.
