D-Day radio coverage in real-time

I don’t listen to any of the satellite radio systems but it is tempting with XM recreating the D-Day radio coverage in real-time:

This incredible broadcast will air, in real-time, starting at 12:41am ET (which was the time of the first airing) and will end June 7th, at 5:45pm ET on The ’40s (ch 4). The special will be based on the original NBC radio news reports of the invasion (currently housed in the National Archives) exactly as it was heard almost 63 years ago.

I’d be interested to hear if they use or recreate the commercials as well as the filler music…
