After some research I have decided to purchase a Starmate 5. I will be using it at home 99% of the time so I plan on getting the home kit.
I downloaded the instructions for the home kit and after reading it I'm a little concerned about the reception of the satellite signal. I have big trees around the house and I really don't want to mount the antenna outside if I don't have to.
How critical is the pointing of the antenna? Is it as critical as it is with satellite TV? I have my DirectTV dish mounted on a 6 foot pole on the roof of the house to get a clear view of the satellite. My new car which came with Sirius radio can pick up a signal when it's parked in the garage. So I'm not quite sure what to expect.
Does anyone insight any insight on this?
Thanks.
