Home Installation
If you don't have a window where you receive a consistent signal, or
placing the antenna in a window is not a practical solution for you, BETTER
reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on a window
ledge, porch, table, or patio . The location you choose should provide the
antenna with a clear view of the southern sky .
If none of the previous
solutions work for you, then
the BEST reception can be
achieved by mounting the
antenna outdoors, with a
clear view of the southern
sky .
Note that you will want
to consider any potential
hazards when you choose
the mounting location,
and possibly consider
professional installation . XM Radio Inc . is not liable for any damages .
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 30 mm (1-3/8") apart horizontally and 36 .5 mm (1-1/8") vertically .
Refer to the template on "Indoor/Outdoor Antenna Template" on page
56 .
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
