Got one for the wife for christmas and had a hard time receiving signal
at home so tried it in the office today with no luck either. It does
work at home if you place the antenna 10' outside the house.

Anyone else having these issues? Have not tried it in the car yet but
have to believe as many of these things I see on other car's it must
work pretty good.

Works great in the car. System not designed for fixed locations.
They may launch a stationary satellite just for you.

Staitionary satellite eh? Haw Haw Haw!

Iff they're like GPS units, you need a clear shot of the sky;
- probably south.

Hell,that's what I meant.Those satellites are stationary in orbit.

My DirecTV stationary satellite dish antenna is on my roof top aimed
toward the Southwest.I am lucky Katrina didn't blow it down on the
ground.

They are not stationary, however they are in orbit so far above the planet that
they 'appear' to be stationary.
