Install the Indoor/Outdoor Home Antenna and Subscribe to Satellite Radio
This step is optional and only necessary if you will be subscribing to SiriusXM
Satellite Radio. The Indoor/Outdoor Home Antenna needs to installed so that it has
a clear view toward the satellites in the south sky.
a.
Open the antenna clamshell approximately
half way, and place the antenna in a window
that faces south. Place the antenna on the
windowsill making sure it faces the glass
and not the window frame. There should be
nothing outside the window which would
block the antenna’s clear view of the sky, such
as a house, a building, trees, or shrubs.
Not sure which way is south? Think about
where the sun rises (in the east) and sets
(in the west). Then stand so that east is to
your left and you’ll be facing south. Is there a
window in the direction you’re facing? Place
the antenna in that window.
b.
Lynx will check the signal strength. If
Signal
Found
is displayed, tap
Continue
to proceed
with the audio check. If Lynx displays
No
Signal/Check Antenna
, try repositioning the
antenna in a different south facing window,
and tap to check the signal strength again.
If you were unable to find an indoor location where the antenna could receive the
signal, you will need to place it outdoors instead, facing the south sky. You can also
go to
www.siriusxm.ca
for additional help and support for installing the Indoor/
Outdoor Home Antenna.

Subscription Options
Lynx allows you to connect to SiriusXM Satellite Radio, SiriusXM Internet
Radio, or both. Connecting to both services provides you with the complete
experience, giving you access to all of the features Lynx has to offer. Whether
you’re in your home, in your vehicle*, out walking or jogging, or within range
of a Wi-Fi® network, you’ll always have a variety of SiriusXM content available.
SiriusXM Internet Radio
provides the
ability to listen to SiriusXM using a Wi-
Fi connection in your home, office, or
anywhere there is a hotspot. Listen to live
Internet Radio, or listen to On Demand shows
that previously aired on SiriusXM. When
you activate your SiriusXM Internet Radio
subscription you will create the credentials
(username and password) that allow Lynx to
connect and receive service. You can also use your credentials to enjoy
SiriusXM Internet Radio on your computer or other compatible device.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio
adds additional exciting features such as Radio
Replays, which saves and stores music from your favourite channels so
you can listen to them anywhere, anytime. Another great feature is Tune
Start, which plays the current song or show from the beginning when you
tune to one of your favourite channels. Use the record feature to record your
favourite channels and shows, and then listen to them anywhere, anytime.
Schedule recordings for upcoming shows, or to record a channel at a specific
date and time. For the sports fan, set Game Alerts for your favourite sports
teams and be alerted when they begin playing a game. Easily tune to the
game with a tap. If you’re listening in your vehicle, you’ll have live Satellite
Radio anywhere you drive in the SiriusXM coverage area.
Remember, you can subscribe to both services at the same time by calling
1-877-438-9677
