| Re: Escort 9500i and Sirius Radio No way to disable GPS, even when its off its still active. I believe Escort can adjust the unit? I vaguely remember someone with this problem.

| Re: Escort 9500i and Sirius Radio That's weird, I have Sirius and the 9500ix and they both play nice. I do notice Sirius seems to have a weak signal in my area and I have had problems with it before due to dense trees and/or going under the overpasses (weird string of words when typed under the over -  been at work too long) | ||||||||

| Re: Escort 9500i and Sirius Radio Something else that may help: Make sure the antenna to your Siruis radio is centered in at least a 1ft x 1 ft section of your roof. I was having problems with that until I figured it out. It's pretty tempting to have it up towards the glass just to keep the wire hidden but it seems to kill the reception. | ||||||||

| Re: Escort 9500i and Sirius Radio Sorry for not having revisited this thread sooner. IIRC, this was a problem noted by Escort - and they indeed have been taking units to "adjust" them to circumvent the interference issue. Steve, what's the build-date on your 9500i? I was under the impression that this was a problem with earlier-build units.
