 |
|
I am having trouble with XM radio reception on my 396 and wonder if anyone has a fix…
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
I am running an extension (“mini-d” connections) so that I can place the antenna behind the back seater’s head on the deck. It also makes the antenna easily removable so that I can use it in the car, etc…
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
Problem: with the extension, XM music “clips” off every second or so like I have poor reception…even though I am showing full signal strength. Without the extension, it still shows full strength, but music comes in fine. With or without the extension, I can receive data..metars, tafs, etc…
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
Anybody experienced this or have a solution?

Funny, I have the same setup in my 8 and it works fine. My extension wire is about 6 feet long.
Maybe just try another extension?
