Station Swapping - As a FM signal
weakens, another more powerful
signal near the same frequency
may begin to play. This is because
your radio is designed to lock onto
the clearest signal. If this occurs,
select another station with a
stronger signal.
Multi-Path Cancellation - Radio signals being received from sever-
al directions can cause distortion
or fluttering. This can be caused by
a direct and reflected signal from
the same station, or by signals
from two stations with close fre-
quencies. If this occurs, select
another station until the condition
has passed. Satellite radio reception
You may experience difficulties in
receiving SIRIUS satellite radio sig-
nals in the following situations.
If you are driving in a tunnel or a
covered parking area.
If you are driving beneath the top level of a multi-level freeway.
If you drive under a bridge.
If you are driving next to a tall vehi- cle (such as a truck or a bus) that
blocks the signal.
If you are driving in a valley where the surrounding hills or peaks
block the signal from the satellite. If you are driving on a mountain
road where is the signal blocked by
mountains.
If you are driving in an area with tall trees that block the signal (10m /
30 ft. or more), for example on an
road that goes through a dense for-
est.
The signal can become weak in some areas that are not covered
by the SIRIUS repeater network.
There may be other unforeseen cir-
cumstances leading to reception
problems with the SIRIUS satellite
radio signal.
