HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- The Federal Communications Commission could soon be on the same wavelength as satellite radio providers’ XM and Sirius.

Also, some cell phone users could soon get a break on bills.

Good news for satellite radio fans. While it's still unknown when the FCC will give the green light to the five billion dollar merger of satellite radio competitors Sirius and XM, the FCC chairman is making some requests that could lead to the finalizing.

The New York Times reports the FCC chairman is set to recommend approval of the merger on the condition that both XM and Sirius freeze consumer prices for three years and offer an "open radio standard,” meaning many different companies could make receivers to play the satellite radio from the merged companies.

So when can you expect to see a radio that can receive both XM and Sirius broadcasts?

The two companies say those radios should be good to go within one year.

As we're feeling pain at the pump and the cost of just about everything is rising, several wireless companies are giving consumers a break.

Sprint, Nextel and Verizon are competing for customers by offering new, less expensive plans.

These new plans vary from offering more free minutes to unlimited texting, and e-mail to discounts for bundling services.
