To mount the antenna, you will need four
screws (not included) with a 1/4” head (e .g .,
an M3 screw), and that are suitable for
the material onto which you are affixing
the antenna, (e .g ., wood, metal, etc .) . The
screws should be spaced 1-3/8” apart
horizontally and 1-1/8” vertically . Refer to
the template on “Indoor/Outdoor Home
Antenna Template” on page 32 .
Once you have found a suitable location
for the antenna, route the antenna cable
to the Home Dock . Be sure you avoid
any obstructions that could crimp, kink, or twist the cable . Use protective
grommets wherever rough openings are encountered . If the antenna is
installed outdoors, route the cable from the antenna location to the interior of
the home or office, working the cable through the basement, under a window
sill, etc ., and make adjustments to take up cable slack as necessary .
TIP! If your Indoor/Outdoor Home Antenna’s cable isn’t long enough, visit
xmradio .com/accessories, or your favorite retailer, and consider a 50 ft . Indoor/
Outdoor Home Antenna Extension Cable or a Wireless Home Signal Repeater .
If the signal is good for either Satellite or Terrestrial (or both), and you are
hearing the audio from your Radio, the installation is complete .
If the signal reception is low, or intermittent, try another location for the
antenna . Verify that the antenna is pointed south, and that the antenna’s view
of the sky is not blocked by a tree, a building, a bridge, or anything else . Adjust
until you are receiving a good signal .
