Radio Stations?

Post by IA Joe »

What is available on STJ for radio stations? I am trying to figure out if I need to bring a bunch of CD's with me. I like modern & classic country and classic rock, and even some easy listening and classical. I don't like much of anything made in the last 15 years. What are my options?

Sirius Satellite Radio!!!

Last year on a trip to STJ, our villa was to have a Bose DVD system, but it was broken and out for service when we got there :(. I had made 3 DVD's of music (MANY hours of music). Luckily, I brought my Sirius, and it worked fine.

This radio station was on our villa 24/7. It's a classical rock station.

At the time, it was a 1st generation sportster with the home kit. This time it will be a stiletto with the same. If you have internet access, you can check out DOGSTAR RADIO, and see where Sat 1, 2, and 3 are when you are on STJ to see where to aim your antenna.

The mongoose had some very trippy specials while we were there. Coral Bay reception was iffy.

Has anyone ever tried XM reception in St John? I tried to ask XM directly and never really got a clear answer. We have an XM boombox that we would bring if we can get reception.

99.5 was on in our Jeep on a Sunday morning maybe 9 or 10 ish and they had a program called Sunday mornings with Sinatra. Not sure if it is every Sunday but it was great for driving from the Westin to Skinny Legs.
