: I bought a Sirius Satellite Radio for $100 that is 100% portable (including antenna that sits on my glareshield) and plugs into my music jack and lighter outlet and pay $12/month for 100 channels, but I can't get a 100% portable wx broadcast system, and still have to shell out over $4K+ $50/month!!!! It needs a driver, and aviation isn't it. [The airlines don't care much - heck, most of them don't have GPS yet; and there just aren't all that many dollars in GA.] My big hope is the same as for GPS - the marine and sports market. There are enough coastal small boats without weather radar to force some competition. If they get interested, then we will see those $200 portable color weather receiver/displays. ----------------------------------------------- James M.
