Antenna Cable Installation

Slightly loosen the adjustment screws and adjust the antenna so that the top of the antenna pod is level, with the top of the pod horizontal to the sky. When the antenna is adjusted properly, tighten the screws being careful not to overtighten them.

Antenna Cable Installation

Once the antenna is securely mounted, you can attach the antenna cable to the antenna pod. When the cable is connected to the antenna pod, slide the rubber boot over the connection as shown to provide a weather proof seal.

Route the remainder of the antenna cable into the home or building to your SIRIUS receiver. If the antenna cable is not long enough to reach your SIRIUS receiver, you may purchase an extension antenna cable. Do not cut the antenna cable.

When routing the antenna cable, be careful not to pinch, squash, kink, or crimp the cable, or cut, damage, or puncture the external jacket of the antenna cable.

Troubleshooting

SIRIUS receiver displays “Antenna Error” or “Check Antenna” message. Check the antenna cable connections to be sure they are connected tightly.

SIRIUS receiver displays “No Signal” or “Acquiring Signal” message. The receiver is not receiving a good SIRIUS signal. Check that the antenna has a clear view of the sky, and that the antenna is pointed in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites. (See the section titled, Antenna Location.)
