Anyone else having problems today? I lost my signal on the ride to work. At times it does kick in and out if I go under and overpass, or pass at truck. I just got to the office and I can't get a signal here either.

Mine seems to be working fine as of now.

Currently in Brooklyn as I'm typing this before I exit me car and head into the gym.

I also experience slight interruption in service when under overpasses and elevated train lines. I guess the signal gets interrupted but all of the metals in those structures.

Thanks Samurai - I know the dead spots are normal on the road. I find it odd that no signal to my car and now my office. Two different accounts too.

Oh well, glad Brooklyn has a signal. I'm dead in NJ. Happy Friday.

No problem at all. I remembered that you're generally in the Tri-state area, so I figured a reference point might help.

Hopefully your service is reinstated soon!

Not sure what caused the outage but the world is right again. Office came back on at about 11:00 and car was good when I left at 4:45.

No problems here either, was in my car 9+ hours today and only had brief loss of signal when going under a couple of overpasses.

you can call sirius to have them send you a signal to your receiver to restore. This has only happened to me once and has done the trick.

Is this the right place to post that I'm happy they moved Turbo to channel 41? :thumbsup: My wife could get it in her Jeep - but was unable to get it in any of my other cars.

Grant Random seems a little jacked by it...guess him and Jason Ellis are buds. :confused2

I have to say, this is a great sight. Moments after posting a random Sirius issue, I get multiple replies. I've been on many other forums and asked actual car questions and I get crickets.

Thank you :bow:
