Does anyone know if XM radio works in Canada?

currently using DEH-P9400MP hu

specifically edmonton alberta canada

 

I am almost positive that it does. I would think that if you can get satellite TV reception (Dish Network or Dierct TV) you should be able to pull in XM.

 

hmm i searched for it came up with the FAQ

signal just barely gets across the border apparently

 

Both XM and Sirius signals will reach most of Canada, but the receivers are not legal to be sold there. You would have to buy one in the US, have it activated here with a verifiable US billing address. You can then drive to Canada and enjoy satellite radio.

 

Wierd, any idea why they aren't legal there? Interesting piece of stereo trivia

 

You can have XM it works but you have to open up a PO box in the us and register there.

As far as why it's not legal in Canada, simple, here the government wants to control and tax everything. That's brand new so they haven't had time enough to come up with an inventive tax for it

 

So umm who wants to sign me up for XM radio!!!!!! :P

 

XM radio does not work well in Vancouver. The angle to the bird is so low that almost any building, or treeline on the southside will block reception. I only use mine when travelling through the US.
