Our take on the SiriusXM SXHA1

by Zak Billmeier

This antenna ensures that you get the best possible satellite radio reception for your Dock & Play radio or SiriusXM-ready home receiver. The indoor antennas included with those products can't always do the job out in the rain, sleet & snow.

You can use the supplied bracket to mount this all-weather antenna on an exterior wall, your roof, or your boat's mast. The package comes with mounting hardware for the antenna and an adapter cable that hooks into your player's home dock. Then you can put the antenna anywhere within 150' of your radio using standard RG-6 indoor/outdoor cable.

DId not work for me yet . . .

Written By Carl, Houston, TX on Wednesday, February 20, 2013

Great idea, for sure. However, I purchased this, along with 2 signal splitters, with the belief that I could put it in line with my cable service and receive a signal. That didn't happen. I connected it, as instructed, but the tuner unit received no signal from it. My TV and internet signal came through just fine, but not the SiriusXM signal. I connected direct, to confirm that the antenna was not defective, and it was able to detect it that way. However, even when run directly without a splitter through the house, the tuner could not detect it. I cannot imagine that it's traveling more than the specified limit of 150 feet, so what's the deal? I still have not gotten it to work, but I will see if there is some way to establish a new direct connection, before I return it for a refund.

UPDATED 2/27/13: While I was led to believe that this could be connected to my existing TV cable via splitters, it simply did not work. However, once I ran a dedicated cable, it worked just fine. It's great to have SiriusXM in the home!

Pros:

Looks like a great idea UPDATED 2/27/13: Easy to install

Cons:

Does not work with existing wiring, as claimed UPDATED 2/27/13: Must run dedicated cable.

Solar Satellite Radio Enjoyment

Written By RalphS, Baja California on Saturday, November 17, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

The installation time was under fifteen minutes from opening the box to enjoying perfect music. Our abode is in such a remote part of Baja California that there isn't an AM or FM signal to use. In fact, all of our electricity is from our solar panels, so this gives us a real connection to home music and news.

Pros:

The antennae kit is complete and even includes the battery for the remote.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

it is lite weight, the only problem/complaint i have is that one of its multi-mounting does NOT include mounting to a metal fence railing such as is found at an apartment complex.....i ended up reversing the clamps and adding my own washers/spacersin order to keep things tight...good news though...some online companies sell a round to flat cable adapter in order to get the cable under the door or thru the window

Great Choice

Written By Joe S, Sterling, VA on Sunday, May 20, 2012

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Solidly built, includes mounting hardware for every method you could possibly want from pole mount to solid surface. Incredibly easy to set up, got solid 3-bar signals on the first attempt with no adjustments - original Sirius antenna delivered two bars at best, and usually one (in same installation location). Uses standard coax for connectivity and includes a coax to Sirius adapter for easy connection to your receiver.

Pros:

Very easy to set up, uses standard coax connections so you can use existing cable runs and wall-entry paths if they already exist. Doesn't force you to rely on the flimsy, easily nicked cable on most Sirius antennas.

Cons:

None so far.
