2. Installation
2.1. Site Selection
Determine the optimum mounting location for the antenna radome assembly. It should
be installed where:
1. The antenna has a clear line-of-sight view of as much of the sky as is practical.
Choose a location where masts or other structures do not block the satellite signal from
the dish as the boat turns.
2.
The antenna is situated at least 5m away from other transmitting antennae (HF, VHF
and radar) that may generate signals that may interfere with the SuperTrack S series
antenna. The further away the SuperTrack S series antenna is from other such
antennae, the less impact their operation will have on it.
The antenna radome assembly should be rigidly mounted on the boat. If necessary,
reinforce the mounting area to ensure that it does not flex due to the boat’s motion or
vibration.
