| Mine will go in and out for a few minutes, then it's fine. Other than that nothing bothers it. We were using it at the restaurant in the kitchen during a storm when all the satellite TV's were out, it was still going with no problems. |

Mine gets noticably worse at night too, it gets this staticy humming in the background no matter what station i have it set to.
I love the programming, but im a little dissapointed in the reception and stuff. Plus i live in an apartment building where it's not really possible to put the antenea on top of the building so i only have it in the car :( |

| Mine home unit has acted up after Midnight from time to time but I didn’t place my antenna outside like you are supposed to do. The cutouts only last for a minute or two at most. I assume this is caused by the handoff between satellites. |

Sirius is digital so there should be no static unless you are using the FM modulator and getting interference that way. Try switching the fm channel when this happens or connecting it directly via cables. |

No wonder my reception is so good. It flies right over Missouri. I don't even have my antenna near a window. |

I also have this antenna and highly recomend it. I have read reviews where people who had poor reception bought this antenna and it fixed it. Terk SIR6 Outdoor Home Antenna

Cool! I'll look into that. I have so much Sirius bullshit, I mix and match just to try and see what works! |

| As you can see from the image above, Sirius' satellites are constantly moving, versus XM's which are always in the same place relative to the earth's motion. This makes it a little harder to properly aim a Sirius antenna. |
