"hills - I'm sure. You can't receive your $10/mo. $200 radio when you're around hills."
Maybe you can't, but I did:
I drove on the Blue Ridge Parkway for three-plus hours, from Fancy Gap (I-77) to Spruce Pine, NC. The hills there are much steeper in relation to the road than any Interstate I've ever driven. To my pleasant surprise, I lost XM reception almost never. My best guess is that this is due to XM's signal buffer, and being relatively near the XM sattelite that (I think) is over Atlanta Ga.
