Is it possible to get XM Radio in Costa Rica? Many of the college football games are on XM Radio.

This is great question. I am trying to see if Sirius works also. Heard but cannot confirm that it works over in Afghanistan. Hoping someday soon to buy the portable Sirius and take with me on my next viaje.

Have read on other boards (non mongering) that reception is spotty at best.

I can say with almost 100% certainty that it won't work with mobile units. However, I do not know if it will work over your PC.

Has this situation improved in the last 10 months? Is there a current list of Internet radio stations available (REAL radio stations, not podcasts)? My contibution to that would be www.wbgo.org and www.wrti.org jazz stations, of course. BTW, Livingcr's link is still live.

If you pay for XM you get www.xmonline.com free of charge.. You can listen to your XM through any Internet browser you logon with...

Great to use if you have a connection...

Small issues.
NO Baseball is broadcast... So I don't know if the College Games will work.. check with Xm...

Just for music.. its great Try Channel 91 Latin Classics its all good!

Try finding the games on www.radiostationworld.com. Just find the local hometown station that carries the game for your team. I do this with the hockey games sometimes but prefer to use NHL.com for hockey.

In the states I listen to CR radio on my computer using their free service. In CR you can listen to your favorite stations back home, where ever that may be.
