So im a new happy owner of a Rola roof rack.
I had a question about satellite radio, does anyone else have sirius while running a rack? I would like to know how you mounted it with minimal cutting out of the signal. Thanks

I had a problem when the rear bar was directly over the antenna, once I moved the bar I was okay. You can relocate the Satellite antenna like Adondo did as well, the write up is on the other forum (need to copy it here).

I don't remember him relocating the GPS antenna but I recall him relocating the Sirius antenna.
You can get a magnetic Sirius antenna with lead. I bought one and paid about $20 if I remember correctly.
I put my Rola Rack as far forward as I could and I got reception most of the time with the stock antenna.

Glad I'm not the only one.. I get reception about 85% of the time its more annoying than anything.
I may move the rack up a few inches to see how that works
