Sirius in the Carribean: Will it Work?

I'm in Trinidad and Tobago later in the week. Will my Sirrius work there?

I doubt it. T&T is very far south - like in South America. I believe that their satellite coverage is much farther north.

You're right about your geography and I was fearful about what you were going to say. Every Wednesday there is a ferry to Venezuala from Trinidad. I've never been to South America and thought about taking it for the passport stamps, but there were too many things that could go wrong since I fly back to North America at 8pm that Wednesday and that is putting aside the warm heart which Venezuela holds for the US and Americans.

Looks like no but it's close so maybe it will work out.

Wow that coverage is really amazing. I had no idea it was all the way out to Bermuda and into Cnetral America.

Works throughout Mexico

I had mine work in Mexico City with no problems and during road trips in central Mexico (depending on how hilly the terrain was).
