I hope so. I'm anxiously waiting for XM weather to migrate to new
platforms, and that won't happen if XM goes belly up...


As more and more ADS-B stations get installed XM will be hard pressed to
sell their weather package. I just saw in Controller magazine a box
that is out now that receives the transmissions for ADS-B and from mode
S transponders. It plugs in to your computer and shows you a radar
screen picture of the traffic near you.
