SIRIUS Backstage

DAB, a moderator here at Backstage, noticed something today on his new Sportster 4 that hints it could be the first radio that is ready for Sirius’ upcoming Hierarchal Modulation. Sirius has released that HM will increase Sirius’ programming capacity by 25%. We do not know 100% if this is the case, it could just be a goof on Sirius’ part.

As you can see the Sportster 4 picks up the other Canadian channels that up until now US residents have never received. We believe that Sirius may have these channels streaming (for lack of better words) over their hierarchal modulation. Again, we are not 100% sure of this. We should know more in the coming months as Sirius releases their live portable.  Stay tuned for the latest updates.
