The ideal antenna site has a clear view of the
horizon/satellite all around.

Keep the antenna clear of any obstructions on the
roof (e.g., air conditioners).

Consider the location of the antenna relative to the
location of any equipment or necessary wiring
within the vehicle.
•
For best operation, mount the antenna on a
horizontal surface.
