Due to the paths of SIRIUS satellites over the US, the best location for the antenna in your home depends on where you live. Use the map below as a general placement guideline—some experimentation may be needed to obtain the best results. In major US cities, you may also be able to receive the signal from SIRIUS ground repeaters, which may allow you to place the antenna away from a window. In all cases, if necessary, you can also locate the weatherproof antenna outside, clear of any overhead obstructions.
