lower and an Antenna mounted high up will not suffer the athwartships velocities or accel-
erations of small vessels and the result will be satisfactory.
Summarising therefore, the Antenna must be mounted so as to have a clear view of the
sky from the horizon upwards, must be clear of wire rigging and other larger metal objects
as referred to above and, not subjected to excessive rolling velocities.
You will need to supply a suitable standard VHF antenna mount.
Fill the connector with silicone grease to prevent corrosion of the plug connector.
CABLE ROUTING
When installing the GPS it is important that the cable is not fitted in close proximity to
antennae cables or cables carrying high currents. If the cable has to follow a similar route to
cables of this type, ensure the distance between the cables is >100 mm.
SCREEN CONNECTION
Where a Screen/Chassis connection is available, (NOT SS -ve or Battery -ve), connect
the Screen of the GPS cable to this point.
