Oh, my XM setup is wired directly into the OEM radio system as I don't like
FM modulators. Plus it allowed me to control the XM system through the
stereo controls on my steering wheel. In fact the only way you can tell I
have XM is from the small antenna on the roof.
The only time I loose signal with XM is when I drive through a wooded area
next to a steep hill. I've actually stopped under a 5 lane overpass and was
still getting signal. This doesn't surprise me since Sirius has 3
satellites with only 1 (maybe two) visible at any given time. XM may only
have 2, but both are constantly visible.
