Potential Reception Issues
For optimal reception performance, keep the antenna
clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
materials as far away from the antenna as possible.
Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
When you pass a ground-based broadcast-repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and
the audio system may mute.
Your display may show ACQUIRING... to indicate the
interference and the audio system may mute.
