Actually Warrick is not the stupid one; he is correct, the satellites for both Sirius and XM are in a Geosynchronous orbit. They stay in the same spot over the earth at all times. Otherwise you WOULD be able to hear Sirius in Israel. But you can't. The good news is there is a service called WorldSpace that (according to their coverage map) covers Israel. Check it out. -a guy named duh

The above are correct; you cannot receive the satellite signal outside of North America. However, you can stream the internet radio from anywhere in the world. And if you have the Stiletto 100 radio, you can stream the internet radio via wifi.
