Satellite signal
Just wondering, in my H2, when ever I drive under an overpass or even behind a large building, I loose the XM satellite signal for just a split second, however in the GLK, I've never lost the signal once? In my garage I can even get reception in the GLK where the H2 has no signal until I get half way out of the garage.
Anyone have any ideas why? Does Sirius have better reception in Canada?
Or is MB antenna just better?
Weird!

I loose signal in parking garages and long tunnels. I guess it might be due to both sirius might have stronger signal and GLK might have a better antena, who knows.

Sirius' satellites orbit differently than XM's, and the signal is better at different times of day. But, I still almost always lose signal for a split-second under bridges and overpasses. Signal is spotty inside my garage. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.
