RE: Just added satelite radio

Here is what my Sirius mount looks like -

Very simple, stock Sirius mount with double side tape, antenna is inside the fairing on top of the stock radio, power is tapped into a key'ed wire, and the aux. input is used on the radio for better sound.

I'm thinking of moving my XM antenna to the inside of the fairing also... reception is good from inside (on top of the radio)?

RE: Just added satelite radio

i'vegot great reception with the antenna mounted on top of the radio, mounted under the fairing. thought i had a problem with the antenna because the signal kept cutting our on my Sirius. Finally found out it was a bad connection between the sat radio and the sirius cradle. replace both, and since the sat radio just slides into the cradle with a plastic switch lock, i use rubber bands wrapped around the radio and cradle to keep the radio from walking out of the cradle.
