I just activated my 3 mont trial of Sirius after buying my truck and while driving around for about an hour today, I had it drop signal several times. Sometimes it took as long as 30 seconds to regain signal and start playing again. Other times it would drop it for only a second at a time, but it would do so 4 or 5 times in a 30 second span. I've never had satellite radio before, so I'm not sure if this is normal or if I have an issue with my receiver.

 

If the buildings are tall you could have a problem. I know driving thru a certain section of my town when the building get close and taller I lose signal.

 

I was going through pretty much the heart of nowhere.

 

Hmm weird. You using the for OEM Sirius and antenna?

 

Yup

 

its sirius....

had the problem in my sport trac when I was in the trial period...I decided not to get it...

it could be anything....

 

Weird. Loose connection?

 

I've had Sirius for years with no problems. I really like it. I can't stand commercials.

 

I have had Sirius since about 2003...the only time I loose signal is under over passes, tunnels, and heavy tree cover, or when the antennae is going bad...its been about 4 years since I have had to replace an antennae...but am probably going to need to soon (they bake on the roof of my truck). I would have the dealer check the connections...

My Sirius works so good, I have had radio in places where my gps quit (very rural California, and Nevada)...

I personally love the programming, but hate their customer service...
