Hi, The radios are programmable from the down load signals. They will quit working and go to channel 1 which is their add channel if they don't receive an authorization code at the specified interval. If you don't pay then they don't send the signal. Then you get no programs. Also a benefit to prevent theft. All you need do is report it stolen or lost and the radio quits. You can pay in several ways. I authorize a once a year payment (saves one months cost) via a credit card. The alternative is monthly credit card billing. You can quit any time as you own the radio up front. None of the nonsense that cell providers do.
