A. B. Figure 4 GOOD reception can be achieved by placing the antenna indoors on a windowsill. The window will need to be facing in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as described later, and have a clear view of the sky. The antenna may need to be placed on a book to raise it above the level of the window frame. (Figure 5) Note: If your location is in major metropolitan area, the antenna can possibly be located inside the home because terrestrial transmitters are used to boost signal strength. If you are able to achieve a good terrestrial signal with the antenna indoors, you can disregard the remainder of these antenna installation instructions. Refer to the section, Testing and Optimizing the Antenna Signal Strength on page 19 for details about displaying the terrestrial signal strength. [ Installation ] 15

GOOD reception can be achieved by placing the antenna indoors on a windowsill.
The window will need to be facing in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as de-
scribed later, and have a clear view of the sky. The antenna may need to be placed
on a book to raise it above the level of the window frame. (Figure 5)
Note: If your location is in major metropolitan area, the antenna can possibly be
located inside the home because terrestrial transmitters are used to boost signal
strength. If you are able to achieve a good terrestrial signal with the antenna
indoors, you can disregard the remainder of these antenna installation instructions.
