The self proclaimed King of all Media, Howard Stern, has made his move to Sirius Satellite Radio and his audience appears to be following. Last year at this time, the subscriber base for Sirius Satellite Radio was a little over 600,000. However, over 3.4 million are now subscribers and this number is expected to grow dramatically over the coming months. As the Sirius subscriber number continues to rise, so does the number of listeners exposed to ScubaRadio and their message to go/try diving. ScubaRadio airs up to 3 times a week on Sirius sports channel #125.

�We went live from the New York National Boat show for our first broadcast of 2006 and stopped by the Sirius studios for some production meetings while in town. It was very cool to see Howard Stern walk by while we made a guest appearance on Jimmy Buffetts� Radio Margarita channel. However, the reaction we received from listeners during our ScubaRadio broadcast was even more impressive. If this is any indication, Sirius is indeed the future of radio and ScubaRadio is positioned extremely well to benefit from its growth. The more people we reach, the more people we can turn on to diving!� Greg Holt-Host/Producer of ScubaRadio.

The Sirius signal covers the entire US and extends over most of Caribbean and Pacific making it an ideal entertainment option for liveaboard dive boats. Sirius offers 65 channels of 100% commercial-free music, and features over 55 channels of sports, news, talk, entertainment, traffic and weather for a monthly subscription fee of only $12.95.
