If you install your HALO radar on a power boat with a steep planing angle, it is recommended you
tilt the radar angle down at the front.
¼ Note: Optional 4° base wedges are available from third-party suppliers.
Considerations for roof mounting
When deciding a suitable mounting location for your HALO radar, be aware that the vertical radar
beam extends to 25° either side of horizontal, with 50% of the emitted energy projecting in a beam
12.5° either side of horizontal.
If the radar beam cannot clear the roof line, this decreases the performance of the radar.
Depending on the size of the hard top of the vessel, we recommend you elevate the antenna to
ensure the radar beams clear the roof line.
