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 consider-
ations 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 8, 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 8, 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.
GOOD reception can be achieved by placing the antenna indoors on a windowsill.
The window will need to be facing in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as de-
scribed later, and have a clear view of the sky. The antenna may need to be placed
on a book to raise it above the level of the window frame. (Figure 9)
