The SIRIUS satellites are not in a fixed place in space and move relative to the earth.
As a result, the signal level at the antenna will vary throughout the day. Once you think
you have aimed and pointed your antenna at the optimal direction, it is important to
check that you are receiving an uninterrupted signal all the time. To ensure that you
continuously receive the SIRIUS signal, we recommend that you observe your antenna
set-up occasionally over the period of few hours and adjust the aim and tilt of the
antenna as necessary.
For more tips on installing the antenna, please visit the SIRIUS website at http://www.

Installing the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna for Outdoor Use
The indoor/outdoor antenna should be placed into the storage area on the top of the
Speaker Dock as shown in Figure 10. The antenna clamshell should face the sky.
Wrap the excess antenna cable around the storage area at the rear, and plug the
antenna cable into the Antenna connector. If you have reception problems, turn the
Speaker dock in the direction of the satellites and try tilting the antenna in the direc-
tion of the satellites.
Alternately, if there is no clear view of the sky where the Speaker Dock is located
outdoors, the antenna can be removed from the Speaker Dock placed where there is a
clear view of the sky, and aimed in the direction of the satellites.
