Acura 2010 MDX - Manual (Page 236)

The XM satellites are in orbit over
the equator; therefore, objects south
of the vehicle may cause satellite
reception interruptions. To help
compensate for this, ground-based
repeaters are placed in major
metropolitan areas. Satellite signals
are more likely to be blocked by tall
buildings and mountains the farther
north you travel from the equator.
Signal may be blocked by
mountains or large obstacles
to the south.
SATELLITE
Signal weaker in
these areas.
