VHF Antenna Installation

The quality and positioning of the antenna is the most important
factor dictating AIS performance. It is recommended that a VHF
antenna with omni directional vertical polarization be specifically
tuned for AIS operation band. Since the range of VHF signals is largely
decided by line of sight distance, AIS antenna should be placed as
high as possible and at least 5 meters away from any constructions
made of conductive materials.

To avoid interference, the VHF antenna location should be placed in
accordance to figure 10.
