Figure 6 AIS transceiver mounting
Step 2 - Installing the external GPS antenna
It is not recommended that the GPS antenna is mounted up a mast
where the motion of the vessel will cause the antenna to swing and
potentially reduce the accuracy of the GPS position. Also, do not
mount the antenna in the direct path of a radar transmitter.
To pole mount the external GPS antenna, you will require a 1-inch
14 TPI thread pole.
