Reception while moving

TimTom · 2018-04-23 22:41:41

How can cars receive Sirus radio while moving in the United States? For example this package https://shop.siriusxm.com/onyx-ezr-vehicle includes a tiny external antenna that receives the signal. Is the technology used different from Astra in the EU? Can Astra be revived while driving ? Thanks.

Sirius radio uses much lower frequencies than the services carried on the Astra satellites hence the ability to receive on the move.
