Testing Antenna Signal Strength

4.Turn the Tuner on and listen for audio. If no audio is heard, aim the antenna in different directions until audio output is heard. This is the desired antenna aiming position.

5.After determining the optimum antenna aiming position, turn the Tuner off, disconnect the power adapter from the wall outlet receptacle, and disconnect the antenna cable.

6.Plan the routing of the antenna cable to the Tuner. Be sure you avoid any obstructions that could crimp, kink, or twist the cable.

Use protective grommets wherever rough openings are encountered. Note: Do not cut the antenna cable.

7.If the antenna is mounted outside, route the cable from the antenna position to the interior of the home, working the cable through the basement, under a window sill, etc., and make adjustments and take up slack whenever necessary.

8.Plug the antenna cable into the ANTENNA connector on the back of the Receiver.

9.Plug the tuner into a 110VAC wall receptacle. The front panel STANDBY LED will light red.

10.You are now ready to activate and enjoy SIRIUS programming within your home.

Testing Antenna Signal Strength

The stronger the signal strength, the less likely it is that you will experi- ence an interruption of the audio. In the menu options of the Tuner (refer to page 53), there is an antenna aiming display which shows two bar graphs indicating signal strength. This can be a useful tool for posi- tioning the antenna in an optimal location for maximum signal reception.
