Installing the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna for Indoor Use
When using the Boombox indoors read this entire section before installing the indoor/outdoor antenna.
To ensure consistent reception of the SIRIUS signal indoors, it is important that the antenna be oriented correctly. Note the
following considerations for antenna placement:
BEST reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on the roof, with a clear 360 degree view of the sky.
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 a window, or by mounting it to the side of the house.
In either case, try to achieve the best possible clear view of the sky.
GOOD reception can be achieved by placing your antenna in a window. Try to achieve a clear unobstructed view of the
sky. If your location is in major metropolitan area, the antenna may be located inside the home because terrestrial
transmitters are used to boost aignal strencth.
If you cannot obtain a clear 360 degree view of the sky (BEST), then for the BETTER and GOOD installations you must at least
have a clear view of the sky in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as shown in the following map diagram.
