I was having issues of my Sirius Satelite Radio dropping it's signal at random times. I had had the attenna next to my window, however there is a deep overhang off my roof and many dense trees in my backyard, so I decided to buy a 50 foot Monster extention cable and run the attenna to my roof.

First I had to screw the attenna onto my roof, then get in the attic and run the wire into my basement, then back up to my stereo.

All in all it went well, as can be seen by my attenna status on the satelite radio. Normally I would get 3 - 6 bars, now its 100% all the time.

Now I can listen to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me and A Prairie Home Companion on "NPR Now" a few times a weekend, Bluff Poker Radio on Wednesdays and Thursdays, The Saturday Night Safety Dance on First Wave, Madison on Alt Nation and Maxim Radio the rest of the time.
