1.3 Choosing the Mounting Location
For a reliable GPS signal, selecting the best location for the receiver is very important. It can be
mounted on a pole, rail, or flat surface. Choose a location that balances the requirements below.
The GPS receiver must have a clear view of the sky to the horizon in all directions. Note that
frozen water spray may degrade reception.
Referring to the figure below for distances, mount away from any VHF radio, satellite commu-
nications equipment, radar, or other antennas to avoid mutual interference.
Mount above or below any radar beam. Do not mount within a radar beam.
Mount reasonably level with the earth’s surface -- not tilted to one side.
Do not mount on top of a sailboat mast. The sway will cause jitter in the data.
Do not mount where the GPS receiver could be a tripping hazard or tread upon.
