Default Satellite Radio in Mexico

Does anyone in the Playa area currently have satellite radio such as sirius or XM?
I saw this site that details the signals but Sirius "claim" that they do not have signals there.

I use an XM radio here and it works great almost all the time. It is one of my favorite possessions.

We have Sirius at the house and at the Luna Blue Bar (Radio Margaritaville,all day everyday.) Just get the antenna up high and there is no problem.

For Sirus, you'll want to point the atennae a little to the north instead of straight up, but we have no problems. there is a small area around Coatepec and Xalapa that has spotty coverage but other than that, we've been fine with Sirius all over the mainland.

We also have XM. One for the house and one that hooks up in the car and they both work great. Every once in a while in the car we get a little jump in coverage but it is usually b/c we are surrounded by cement buildings.
