2 Choosing a suitable location for the antenna Mount the antenna with a good view of the sky and horizon. The view should not be blocked by large parts of the superstructure. The unit can be under glass, perspex, fibreglass or fabric, but not under metal or wood. Mount the antenna away from any source of electrical signals or noise. Do not mount the antenna within 3 m (10 ft) of a radio transmitter antenna or within 0.5 m (20") of the plane of a radar antenna.
3-2 Pole mounting Note: Do not mount the antenna too high, such as up a mast, or boat rocking will cause errors in speed and bearing. Positioning tabs Attach only to 1" (25.4 mm) diameter pole with a thread of 14 TPI UNB. Thread the cable through the pole mount adaptor. Position the pole mount adaptor onto the antenna, using the positioning tabs. Attach with the four srews provided, do not overtighten. The cable may pass through the pole, or exit the side of the antenna. Screw onto the pole.
