SIRIUS Satellite Radio applied for 16 new repeaters today. Well actually, they filed two days ago, then withdrew it yesterday, and then re-submitted today (correcting some errors in the first app).

A majority of the new Sirius repeaters are in coastal cities. Here's a list of the cities applied for:

  • Jersey City, NJ
  • Clearwater, FL
  • Los Angeles, CA (4 repeaters)
  • Valenca, CA
  • Miami, FL
  • New York, NY
  • Hillside, NJ
  • Rutherford, NJ
  • Lake View, NJ
  • Boca Raton, FL
  • Dallas, TX
  • Saint Petersburg, FL
  • Norwalk, CT

Here's the STA description:
Description: Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. herein requests a modification of its Special Temporary Authority to operate sixteen additional satellite digital audio radio service terrestrial repeaters.

This is assumably in preparation for the upcoming Sirius Wearable.

Well, its about time.


Anyone have a breakdown of total US repeaters between the two companies?

What about some repeaters in Toronto, Canada?
And what about traffic/weather in Toronto?
We need it here too, almost 10,000,000 people in the Toronto area.

Good. My repeater reception is LA isn't very good. It's not always easy to position a satradio in your home in such a way to make access to signal via the antenna doable.
