Interesting, Scott  AFAIK, CBC is not yet running on Sirius--at least 
Sirius in the US.
There is a different satellite service from a Sirius (different 
company, different technology entirely) satellite that serves Europe, I 
believe.  Maybe that's what he was referring to?  Sirius Satellite 
Radio's application to the CRTC is still pending.  Those regulatory 
bodies move like icebergs.

And, yes, the BBC info is off at least by that hour.  Also, the 
schedule they run on the screen is not the correct one.  I've written 
both Sirius and the BBC over this one several times now, as it's been 
that way for a long time.  Unfortunately, no corrections yet.  Maybe 
you should write them as well.
