Installing the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna
Before installing the indoor/outdoor antenna, read this entire section.
To ensure consistent reception of the SIRIUS signal in your home, it is important that the
antenna be oriented correctly. Note the following Best, Better, and Good considerations for
antenna placement.
BEST reception can be achieved by mounting the antenna on the outside of the building on
a soffit at the roof, with a clear 360 degree view of the sky. (Figure 6, A) This position will
afford the best view of the sky for best reception. When placed in this location, an antenna
extension cable may be required.
BETTER reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on a window, on a
porch, or on a patio (Figure 6, B), or by mounting it to the side of the building. In all cases,
try to achieve the best possible clear view of the sky.
