Welcome to Sirius! It took you long enough! I have had it about 16
months - can not and will not listen to terrestrial radio again.
Anyway, I tried a few positions and they all sucked. I finally ended up
putting it in the knee tray under the dash of my CQ. I realize this
doesntt apply to an UrS car but maybe you have room somewhere below the
dash.
It is not the easiest thing to reach but it isn't horrible either. I
decided to give up a little convenience for a more stealth look.
Good luck,
Dave Kase
listening to Howard to and from work every day...(and Octane - channel
20 when I get the shits of him)
