Mounting considerations
When selecting a mounting location for the antenna unit, keep in
mind the following points:
• Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will
obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal.
• Be sure the location offers a clean line-of-sight to satellite. Ob-
jects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast or
funnel, block reception and cause prolonged acquiring time or
interruption of position fix.
• Mount the unit as high as possible. This will keep the unit free
of water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite
signal if frozen.
• Separate the unit well away from the antenna of radio equip-
ment.
