normally takes 10 to 15 minutes, but during
peak busy periods, you may need to keep your
player on for up to an hour. When you can
access the full channel lineup on your player,

To ensure optimal reception of XM’s satelite signal,
move your antenna to various window locations
around your home to see where the best reception
will be received. Most XM customers place the
antenna in a south-facing window with a clear view
to the sky.
