Default GPS antenna location

Always best to get the GPS antenna some distance from the radar and out of
the direct beam of the radar.

I agree that low down is generally ok. Mine is inside the fibreglass
flybridge with no apparent ill effects!

I have been getting conflicting advice about relative position in
regard to my radar dome. Both will be mounted on my mast about 12 to
24 inches apart. I have a choice of having the GPS right below the
bottom of the dome or I could put an extension and have it extend a
few inches above the dome. Any advice?
Thanks
Bob
