Default XM Simulcast?

The "Sirius Patriot" guys are now transmitting on XM America Right also. Stern is available as part of a "Best of Sirius" package.

Is there any talk of an XM simulcast (or delayed replay) of ATR?

I have both (XM hardware in the car is better than my homebrew Sirius rig)

Hopefully when they merge more of the sports content it will happen. There's got to be a lot of XM-only subscribers who'd like the show.

Joey/Doc,

We just went over the topic with Sirius again this past week. According to Sports Director Steve Cohen, there isn't as much room for Sports Talk on the XM grid as there is on Sirius, and they can't find room for us on XM at the prime 4-7pm EST slot. And it would become even harder once baseball starts.

The possibility of recorded airings at off hours hasn't been broached though... Maybe the 4-7am and 7-10am concept could work.
