SIRIUS SATELLITE - No [censored] Reception
 

I just got this piece of [censored] about a week ago and my reception has completely gone to [censored].

I bought this contraption and a year of service for obvious reasons and shelled out over $400 total. I got this boombox thing and the reception sux, only works at night and I get one [censored] bar. Works in my car but it'd be nice to work in my [censored] house.

Can anyone here hook a n---a with some advice ???

I always think it's funny when people actually type in "[Censored]".

Did you install the boombox's antenna outside? On the roof?

Re: SIRIUS SATELLITE - No [censored] Reception
 

not yet, it's taped to my window...the cord is only 20 something feet and I bought the 50 ft extension but the plug is so deep in the boombox the extension doesn't fit.

I'm thinking of just returning the boombox if it doesn't work in my office and just buy the home docking station and buy an antenna long enough to go on the roof.

think this makes more sense?

i can't help but i'm gettin xm for christmas


howard would be nice, but O&A is just too damn funny to pass up- plus the entire setup is waaay cheaper

the delphi portable system (ipod style thingy) is like 85 bucks now- down from 300 when it first came out...


car kit, home kit, etc included-- purty sweet.

I don't know how much cord the home docking antenna comes with, nor how much you need.

When you say "taped to the window", is it inside or outside? Is it facing up or out? If possible, get it outside, facing up. On the roof would be best, but out on the sill might be good enough.

it's inside right now, cord too short to get to the roof, long enough to get outside but not much room to shift around.

With the home docking station, I think the 50 ft would fit and I could get it on the roof.

I'm assuming the roof gives superb signal strength???

Absolutely.

You need a line-of-sight to the northern sky, the satellite circles Manitoba.
