We just installed a Sirius system on our SUV and it works just fine.
But for some reason, they recommend putting the antenna as far to the REAR of the vehicle as possible.
Why would they do this?
The only credible reason I can think of is that it might work slightly better inside a garage or a carport.
Engine shielding? Possible feedback from the control box?
Also, their inline insertion adaptor totally trashes AM when powered. I would think this could be avoided somehow.
