This is the first time I've gotten a "NO SIGNAL" message. It has lasted several minutes now. Did they lose a satelite?

Moderator Update:
As of 7:30PM ET, May 21, XM has posted an official bulletin:

Quote:

5/21 Service Degredation

You may be experiencing temporary degraded performance with your XM reception at the present time. XM is aware of the issue and working diligently to resolve it as soon as possible. We anticipate full signal strength will be restored by early Tuesday morning.

As of Tuesday Morning, May 22, XM has posted an updated bulletin:

Quote:

XM Service Update

As many of you know, XM customers have experienced service outages or significantly degraded service since Monday mid-morning, May 21.

We quickly identified the problem and are working hard to return to our normal levels of service. The problem occurred during the loading of software to a critical component of our satellite broadcast system, which resulted in a loss of one of our satellites. We expect normal service to resume midday today (eastern daylight time).

XM apologizes for any inconvenience this has caused. For updates, please go to www.xmradio.com

In the meantime, you can enjoy many of our music channels on XM Radio Online (xmro.xmradio.com) if you are close to computer.

Again, we regret any inconvenience for not having your XM Radio service fully available.

As of Tuesday Evening, 5:30PM ET, XM has posted the following bulletin:

Quote:

XM Radio Resumes Normal Levels of Service

XM Satellite Radio has resumed normal levels of service for customers who experienced outages or significantly degraded service starting yesterday.

The problem occurred during the loading of software to a critical component of the satellite broadcast system, which resulted in a temporary loss of signal from one of the company's satellites.

After you turn on your XM radio, please allow five to ten minutes to reacquire the XM signal.

XM apologizes for any inconvenience this has caused.

Are you dependant on the repeaters? Or the sattellite? I just lost my repeater signal. _________________ XM subscriber since 2005/12/05: Pioneer Airware (LIFE, wife) Tao (son) Pontiac G5 (XM Canada) Sirius subscriber since 2007/12/06: Stilletto 2 (LIFE) Premium Internet Sirius TTR1

Was listening to Watercolors... it started fading in and out. Then lost it. Switched to 40s. It did the same thing. Can't get ANYTHING now.

I'm in Spokane, WA and have the signal fading in and out quite a bit. No repeaters here though, just satellite. Pretty unusual considering I generally get a good signal. _________________ Roady 2 XMPCR
