I screwed a piece of angle iron on an inside edge of the luggage compartment and stuck the antenna there. Some put it under the luggage rack and I read somewhere that at least one has taken it back from under there. The cable is currently routed through the passenger door, but it also can go back and under the canvas, then over the headliner. I'll be doing that in time. What type of receiver? I have the Sportster with a suction cup that holds it to the windshield. I started with it in the middle of the windshield but moved it to the left side of the windshield where I can reach it better. Then ran the wires down the column. Did you know that if you have high speed Internet access you can also play Sirius through your home computer? It's at WWW.Sirius.com. Select "Listen" and enter username and password. Best, Tom Salicos '87 Syncro Westy EG-33 |
