Anybody Else Get Serious? (Sirius)

I’m tickled to death with this thing. Best gift ever; 60 streams of commercial free music. I love the Hard Attack, Big Rock, and First Wave Alternative channels to name a few. Anybody else get or have a satellite radio? I got the portable plug-n-play model with the home and car kits. Finally I can listen to good music without blathering deejays.
 
yeah i've got it in my car. i have the here2anywhere unit that looks like Johnny 5 on my dash. the music variety is awesome, but the clarity sucks because it uses an fm modulator. there's a fair amount of static on some songs. i basically got it for the old school hip hop channel. i've got hard attack programmed on there as well. some of the names of the bands on there crack my shit up. it's all super death metal. i bought a year's subscription and will most likely renew when it expires. i used to own a fair amount of sirius stock but sold it off because it doesn't look like they're meeting their subscription numbers that they forecasted.
 
I bought a year subscription as well. ($142)

I have mine setup to use the FM modulator as well so I was wondering what other people thought about that. I haven’t noticed any static yet but I have to believe that hardwiring the audio input would provide better quality. That being true, I’ll hook mine up that way when I get some time. Right now I’ve got the antenna wire lying on the floor and nothing is permanent. I have a convertible so I put the satellite antenna on the metal in between the windshield and the top. Signal has been strong so far, but I haven’t driven around too much yet.

For the home unit I had little to no signal inside the house. I had to put the antenna outside to get a signal. Pointing straight up at the sky I had +8 bars.

Where did you mount your antenna? And do you ever lose signal?
 
the antenna is mounted above the passenger side door next to the sunroof. i lose signal briefly when i go under overpasses and when i park my car underneath the car port. other than that it's perfect. i listen to the comedy station a lot, too. good shit on there.
