Selecting the location
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 to 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 vessel turns.
2.
The antenna is at least 5 feet away from other transmitting antennas (HF, VHF and ra-
dar) that may generate signals that may interfere with the O37/45M antenna. The fur-
ther away the O37/45M antenna is from these other antennas, the less impact their op-
eration will have on it.0
3.
Direct radiation into the antenna from vessels radar, especially high power surveillance
radar arrays, is minimized. The radome should be as far away from the vessels Radar
as possible and should NOT be mounted on the same plane as the vessels Radar.
4. The antenna radome assembly should be rigidly mounted to the vessel. If necessary, re-
inforce the mounting area to assure that it does not flex due to the vessel motion or vi-
bration.
If these conditions cannot be entirely satisfied, the site selection will inevitably be a “best”
compromise between the various considerations.
Perform a through site inspection on the roof for the antenna to be mounted.
1.
The antenna must have a clear view of the sky and the horizon at all the directions to avoid block-
age of the satellite signal.
2.
The antenna should be on the top of the vessel.
