Sirius Radio for RVs Reception
All . . . . I am thinking of buying equipment for the SiriusXM system. What reception do you get with Sirius?? Do you have to have a truckers antenna to get good signals?? I am having mixed emotions...

we live in metro Chicago and spend between 1-3 months in Phoenix each spring. I've had no problem finding a clear FM frequency for my SXM receiver in either area.
I had an old FM transmitter jobby and around Baltimore/Washington D.C. there was just too much outside interference to get a good signal. I would be reluctant to spend a lot of money on this type of a solution. but I don't think the OP wants an easy/quick/cheap solution. I think he wants an excuse to upgrade his radio from the AM only cheap charley that came in the edsel.

that may very well be the case but in my case I paid <$30 for the receiver and $10 for the antenna. not a large investment and it does the job. totally agree that the AUX port connection is best by a long shot but my point was if he doesn't have one he can still connect another way. but if he's looking for an excuse...well, I've been there as well. :)
