3.2.1 General site considerations
For optimum system performance, some guidelines on where to
install or mount the different components of the SAILOR 100 Satellite
TV System must be followed.
It is recommended to mount the ADU in a location with as much
360° free line of sight to the satellite as possible while making sure
that the support structure fulfills the requirements for the mast
foundation. The ADU must be mounted on stiffened structures with
a minimum of exposure to vibrations.
