Satellite radio - radio validation



I'm curious, can someone provide a simple several paragraph, basic
explanation of how satellite radio authentication works? eg. If the radio is
only a receiver and I cancel my subscription how does the radio know that
the subscription has been canceled (do they send it a list of all valid
radios)?

Thanks
