2. High Enough to have a clear view of the sky to the horizon in all directions unblocked by
masts or antennas – The GPS100 provides the best readings when it has access to as
many satellites as possible.
3. As far as possible from VHF, satellite, or radar antennas – Radio frequency transmissions
from these antennas can interfere with the proper reception of GPS satellite signals by the
GPS100.

The Maretron GPS100 can be mounted directly on top of a horizontal surface (Section 2.3.1)
or on top of a 1” 14 threads per inch standard marine pole mount (Section 2.3.2).
