TIP: If you regularly travel between cities with different active FM channels, you may need to find channels that are not broadcasting in each city. Your SIRIUS InV2 can store 5 different preset FM transmitter channels so you can easily switch to the best FM channel for each city.

Wireless Audio Connection Using the FM Extender Antenna

Your SIRIUS radio includes an FM Extender Antenna (FEA) that can maximize the audio quality of your SIRIUS radio when using a Wireless Connection. The FM Extender Antenna brings the FM signal transmitted from your SIRIUS radio into close proximity with your vehicle’s FM antenna to provide a strong FM signal for good reception (see Figure 22).

Because of the different kinds and locations of radio antennas found in different vehicles, SIRIUS suggests that the FM Extender Antenna be professionally installed in your vehicle. Professional installation provides an experienced technician to install the Extender Antenna, knowledge of your vehicle for locating its radio antenna, and routing the cable and connecting it to your SIRIUS radio. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation service.
