Second: Determining a Location for the Antenna
For correct operation and best reception of the SiriusXM signal, it is important
that the Outdoor Home Antenna is located in a place where it will have a clear
view of the satellite 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 pod portion of the antenna (where the logo
is printed) has a clear 360 degree view of the sky within the cone-shaped area
shown in the following illustration.
If you cannot obtain a clear 360 degree view of the sky in your location, then
you’ll need at least a clear view of the south sky. If you look closely at the next
illustration, you can see that the antenna does not have a clear view of the sky in
all directions due to trees. However, it does have a clear view of the sky toward
the south, in the direction of the satellite. Your antenna will also need to have a
clear view sky of the in the south direction. Not sure which way is south? Think
about where the sun rises (in the east) and sets (in the west). Then stand so that
east is to your left and you’ll be facing south.
No obstructions to the
sky within this area
