Satellite Radio Reception Factors
To receive the satellite signal, your vehicle has been equipped with a
satellite radio antenna located on the roof of your vehicle. The vehicle
roof provides the best location for an unobstructed, open view of the sky,
a requirement of a satellite radio system. Like AM/FM, there are several
factors that can affect satellite radio reception performance:
• Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.
• Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.
• Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an
audio mute.
Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is
satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display NO
SIGNAL to indicate the interference.
