Mounting the antenna unit

The antenna unit may be installed three ways: screwed into a pipe (local supply),
fixed to a post with the optional mast mounting kit or screwed into an optional
mounting base. For fixing by post, it is recommended to use stays to secure the
post or pipe to prevent damage to the GPS receiver by vibration. For mounting
details, see the antenna outline drawing at the back of this manual.
