Section 3: Operating Your Delphi XM Satellite Radio Signal Repeater

Placement and Mounting

Placement

Your Delphi XM Satellite Radio Signal Repeater transmitter should be placed in a location that allows for connection to a properly placed XM home antenna (i.e., near a south-facing window). See your satellite radio receiver user guide for more information on locating a suitable location for the antenna.

Your repeater antenna may be placed up to 75 feet away from the transmitter. The repeater antenna should be placed as high as possible for best reception. For optimal performance, place the repeater antenna in direct line of sight with the transmitter.

Note: Any obstructions in the direct line of sight (such as furniture, walls, floors, or people)

may result in degradation of signal.

Multiple repeater antennas may be operated off one transmitter device. Additional repeater antennas are sold separately. See page iii for example placements.
