How do I buy xm satellite radio notes?

Question

Watching Jim Cramer today and he says the best way to play the XM-SIRI merger is to buy some of the XM convertible notes due in 2009. How do I find quotes on these notes and how do I buy them?

Answer 1

find out which ones are publicy traded.  there are many ways to do this, but checking some data source on corporate bonds, such as the WSJ, or more sophisticated, expensive sources like Bloomberg are a sure bet.  

then, contact your broker and buy buy buy..
