2. Determining a location for the antenna

For correct operation and best reception of the SIRIUS signal, it is important that
the outdoor antenna is located in a place where it will have a clear view of the
SIRIUS satellites in the sky. Obstructions such as bushes, trees, other homes
or buildings, overhangs, softs, chimneys, gables, dormers, etc., will impair or
prevent the antenna from receiving a signal.
The best reception is obtained if the pod portion of the antenna (where the
SIRIUS logo is printed) has a clear 360 degree view of the sky within the cone-
shaped area shown in the following illustration.
