tuner is a T-type and it should be stretched horizontally in space that is as clear as
possible. Some reorientation may be necessary if signals in your area are weak. Best
results can usually be achieved if the length of the antenna faces the metropolitan
area from which the FM signals you wish to receive originate. The supplied antenna
has a fitting at its end that will enable you to fasten it in place.
SIRIUS
For correct operation and best reception of the SIRIUS signal, it is important that the
antenna is located in a place where it will have a clear view of the SIRIUS satellites
in the sky. Obstructions such as bushes, trees, other homes or buildings, overhangs,
soffits, chimneys, gables, dormers, etc., will impair or prevent the antenna from
receiving a signal.
The best reception is obtained if the antenna is located outside and where the pod
portion of the antenna (where the SIRIUS logo is printed) has a clear 360 degree
view of the sky.
If you cannot obtain a clear 360 degree view of the sky outdoors or you will be
locating the antenna indoors, you will need to place the antenna in a window (or
outdoor location) which has a clear view of the sky in the direction of the satellites
and aim the antenna in the direction of the satellites, as shown in the diagram below.
Use the map in the diagram to find the area in which you are located (1 to 5). Then
find the direction in which you need to have a window (or outdoor location) with a
clear view of the sky:
Area 1: You will need a window/location with a clear view of the sky facing EAST
or NORTHEAST or SOUTHEAST.
Area 2: You will need a window/ location with a clear view of the sky facing
NORTH or NORTHEAST.
Area 3: You will need a window/ location with a clear view of the sky facing
NORTH or NORTHWEST.
Area 4: You will need a window/ location with a clear view of the sky facing
WEST or NORTHWEST or SOUTHWEST.
Area 5: You will need a window/ location with a clear view of the sky facing
STRAIGHT UP (antenna cannot be located indoors).
For example, suppose you live in Area 2. You determined that your antenna will
need to have a window (or outdoor location) with a clear view of the sky facing
