Richard,

I have my XM antenna on an inside wall and have generally had no problems. 
The only time there is an issue is on some of the non-music channels when 
the microwave is running.  If you aren't within fifteen feet of a microwave, 
and assuming you are at a similar latitude to me, about 43 degrees north, 
you shouldn't have an issue.

I have a special docking station that interfaces with my Yamaha receiver. 
However, there are generic docking stations that you can put on any input of 
a receiver.
