I live on Long Island in NY. I live in Suffolk County by MacArthur Airport in Bohemia/Ronkonkoma. My Radio plays for 5-10 minutes then says "acuiring signal". It never Acuires a signal. I turn the radio off and then on and SOMETIMES it comes back on. Then it says Acuiring Signal again. They sent me a new antenna. It did NOTHING.

Does anyone else have a problem with this stuff?

Is it the area?

Can an airport mess it up?

my gps works fine.

I don't think it is the airport because it happens all over Long Island?

Will a regular (in dash) radio be better? (how can it)

I am getting really annoyed.

  1. We've had complaints from Long Island before. You're in an extreme part of the signal range, but being the NY metro, I'm surprised that ground-based repeaters aren't helping the situation.

    You may not want to hear it, but Sirius tech support really is your best bet. Though not as good as XM in the customer service dept. they can't make money if customers can't get the signal.

    Once you get a rep, ask for a supervisor, you may need an entire replacement unit. If that doesn't work, try K-Joy, WALK or WMJC 94.3... or XM  ;<)

    Good luck.
