    There covergae is all over the US.
    I have working in the canyons of Utah, 60 miles of dirt road and 100 miles from town
    and always had a good signal for my Sirius.
    I swear by sirius and have worked from west Texas to North Dakota and the only
    problems I had was I wore out the receivers from over use. Meaning I put prob 100k miles 2 years in a row driving to and from rigs.

    It's a freakin' satellite man! As long as you've got a view of the sky it'll work.

    Pretty much, if you can get a decent GPS signal, you can get XM/Sirius

    it's funny... when ever my guys and I go camping,, we have to make a pact to turn off the phones because they all get service in these remotes areas now lol..

    been going to this one spot for over 10 years and we didnt have to worry about service until probably last year.

    point is.. I could always just check my phone lol

    The only times we had a phone out on Memorial weekend was to drive out and call to give directions and to use My Tracks run and mark trails on the ATV.
