I'm setting off on my "bucket list" trip 2 Sep . . . headed to Alaska from GA!
The XM Radio folks tell me they can not guarantee reception in AK, that it's (obviously)
dependent on satellite position/reception. Can anyone tell me where
the XM weather reception is reliable/unreliable? Depending on weather, I plan
on being as far north as Fairbanks, west to Kodiak, and all the way down to Ketchikan.
Also, I'd be interested in exchanging a couple of notes with any AK residents re
questions I have about flying in AK, especially if you are willing to share
a secret fishing hole and/or keeping bears at a safe distance.

Frank,
I no longer am an Alaskan resident, but I flew bush charter work in Alaska
in a Maule M6-235 for 6 years up in the interior. If you want, contact me
directly and I'll do my best to answer questions that I can.
