There are receivers that are Satellite ready. My XM receiver plays through the cassette with an adapter. It plugs into the Audio out jack on the car adapter. If your radio doesn't have a cassette player, then that bit of info is moot.

I don't have one, but I hear that there are devices that attach to the vehicle mast antenna to enable the radio to receive the satellite broadcast. But you still have to have the correct antenna for your satellite system, whether XM or Sirius.

You should go to the website for the service you have, to learn more about what is available.
