ZBA, Inc. only recommended if there are very, very long periods of inactivity and the battery power is of the utmost concern.
ZBA, Inc. 10 Mounting recommendations For maximized performance please orient the device with the antenna as close to the outside of the housing as possible. Best performance will occur if the underlying PCB does not have a ground plane under the area where the antenna is located. The nearest ground plane should be at least 3mm away from any point on the antenna.
