Digital Insurrection FAQ Digital Components : XM Radio : Single and 2 Wire Antenna Differences Question: I have seen many XM radio systems with 2 wire antennas and some only have 1 wire. What is the difference between the 2? Answer: Many of the older XM Radio systems and tuners had 2 wire antenna systems. (Yellow/Green) One wire was for reception of satellite based transmissions and the other was for reception of ground-based (terrestrial) transmissions. Newer XM receivers ave a single antenna wire (purple) , which integrates both the satellite and terrestrial signals into one wire. The two technologies are not compatible with one another, so if you have a 2 wire antenna input, you will need to purchase a 2 wire antenna. The new generation of slim antennas now use a 1 wire configuration. last updated 28.10.2005 user rating:  comments on ratings  How do you rate this article?  unhelpfulslightly helpfulquite helpfulvery helpful Reason:   [previous FAQ]   [next FAQ] List FAQ in this category | List categories | List all FAQ | List programs actual time on server is 05:16 all times are GMT Powered by FAQEngine V4.05.6 ©2001-2004 Bösch EDV-Consulting
