Step 2: Place and Aim the Indoor/Outdoor Home Antenna
To begin, try experimenting with the Indoor/Outdoor Home Antenna to get a
feel for the reception in your location. In major metropolitan areas, you might
find that you get great reception in several locations without worrying too
much about aim and placement. If two to three bars of signal strength are
being displayed at the lower left corner of the screen, continue with step 3
on page 18.
If there is not at least two bars of signal
strength displayed, refer to “Audio Level”
on page 69 and access the Signal
Indicator screen to see a visual indication
of signal strength. Move the antenna
around the room or from room to room.
Aim it from different windows. If you find
a location where you are receiving good
Satellite or Terrestrial signal strength (or
both), press and hold menu to exit the
Signal Indicator screen. Onyx Plus should
be tuned to channel 1, the XM Preview
channel. Continue with the step 3 on page
18.
If you are unable to find a location where
you are receiving good Satellite or
Terrestrial signal strength, try some of the
suggestions which follow.
