How does satellite radio work and can it be installed on a radio at home?
I listen to a radio station streaming on the internet via my computer. However i want my mother who is not computer literate to be able to listen also on a radio (not the computer). I went ahead and checked Sirius’s website and noticed a channel list. The radio station i have been listening to is not included so i am wondering how to get this resolved.
You are probably thinking of a ‘wifi’ radio rather than satellite. There are ‘radios’ that can connect to a wi-fi access point and deliver internet streamed audio without a ‘computer’ — something designed mostly for people who are computer-phobic I assume — available.
This will allow someone to listen to the audio streamed over the internet without using a ‘computer’ to do so.
This is NOT the same thing as satellite radio which is a subscription based service much like cable or satellite TV, but an internet function. If Sirius doesn’t carry the station you are looking for, they it won’t be on their service, Period. I’d suggest either getting a cheap computer and attaching speakers, and just setting up an ‘alias’ to allow your mom ‘one click access’ to the station she wants to stream or investigating the Wi-Fi "radios" out there to see if that will work better for her.
Equipment that will allow you to access to a specific satellite radio system … Once the connection is installed, you can plug the receiver into the docking … An advantage to this approach is that the radio receiver can be removed and plugged into other systems, such as in your home or in a portable unit.

That makes no sense. Think of Sirius/XM like DirecTV only just audio. They carry what they wish.

I suggest getting Sirius/XM for your mom so she can hear Ba Ba Booey.

If you’re listening to a satellite radio station on your computer, it won’t be available via regular radio broadcast. Just like satellite internet service requires a dish and receiver, satellite radio will also require an extra component – the radio receiver. Once you pay for a subscription and buy the receiver, your mom can enjoy satellite radio anywhere, even in her vehicle.
