I installed a XM Roady2 last summer. I mounted the antenna on the roof and it has always picked up a signal (so far). The antenna comes with a strong magnetic base which was mounted by riveting a galvanized steel bracket (bracket is Picture 1 and picture 2 below show mounted antenna) to the roof. The antenna wire was routed through the roof between the inner and outer walls ( path is shown in Picture 3) . The receiver was mounted on the wall near the switch for the water pump( picture 4) . BTW this was installed on a 1963 Globetrotter. By putting it in this location it can be hidden by the curtains. The Roady II broadcasts on one of several FM frequencies through the antenna wire so I had to leave a section of the antenna wire exposed inside the trailer. This allows us to have a vintage radio inside the trailer that actually plays the selected program. I can even sit outside with a portable radio and pick up the selected programming within 20 feet or so of the trailer. The Roadie also has a small remote to change channels etc.
