Can I receive reception for a Sirius radio in Rio de Janeiro Brazil?

Travel Tips
According to Starry Night you should be able to receive the Sirius signal anywhere in the Western Hemisphere including the Caribbean, Alaska and Hawaii. At higher altitudes (like in aircraft) you may be able to receive the signal intermittently in Western Africa and Ireland. For best reception, aim your antenna in the direction of the center of the figure eight. Fringe Location Lowest Highest Quality Always See One Satellite?
