4. Position the antenna outdoors within 30 feet of the TriplePlay
unit (or within 100 feet if you are using an inline amplifier).
5. Position the flat receiving dish straight up and with an
unobstructed view to the SIRIUS satellites—that is, an
unobstructed view toward the “X” Figure 1.

6. Power on your sound system and turn the amplifier to a low
volume.
7. Power on TriplePlay and tune to channel 184, a free preview
channel. Press 1-8-4 on the front panel NUMERIC buttons.
If the system is working, you will hear SIRIUS programming
on this channel and can proceed to Step 8.
If the antenna does not have a clear path to the satellites,
TriplePlay’s front panel display will read “Acquiring Signal” or
“Antenna Not Connected.” Reposition the antenna until you
hear music playing.

Mounting the Antenna
The antenna, as shown in Figure 2, must be mounted outdoors
within 30 feet of the TriplePlay unit (or within 100 feet when
using an inline amplifier). Its versatile mount allows it to be
clamped to various objects or fastened directly to a rigid
structure. For example, the antenna can be mounted to a wall or
eave, s crewed directly into the roof, or “mast mounted” to a
plumbing vent pipe or other antenna mast such as the support
post of a satellite TV dish.

Figure 2 Point the antenna’s flat surface straight up.
The flat surface of the antenna’s receiving dish should be
installed to point straight up and have an unobstructed path
(view) between it and the SIRIUS satellites—that is, the “X” in
Figure 1. The path between your antenna and the SIRIUS
satellites depends on your location in the U.S.

satellites depends on your location in the U.S.
The best location for the antenna depends on where you live, the
orientation of your home, and the locations of any obstructions
that could prevent the satellite signal from reaching the antenna.
The location of the “X” on the map in Figure 1 must be visible to
the antenna. Table 1 defines the unobstructed view needed
between your antenna and the satellites.
