Default XM reception in severe weather?


"Andrew Gideon" wrote in message

A friend with XM radio in his car tells me that sufficiently poor weather
ruins his reception. Would the same occur with XM weather (ie. to a
handheld or a GDL-69)? I cannot imagine that that would be the case w/o
lots of complaints, but I thought I'd check here.


A couple weeks ago I flew in heavy rain off and on for an hour with no XM Wx
reception problems on a Garmin 396.
