Default radar scanner placement

Hi
I've got a JRC 1000 MKII, while shopping around i stumbled across an
aluminium cradle for the scanner/radome which would place the back of unit
about 50mm forward of the mast. Is this too close to the mast? Granted its
not likely that a collision would occur from directly behind without
setting off the guard alarm beforehand, would the proximity of the mast
cause any ghosting? Anyone else using a similar unit mounted on the mast?

Is 20ft generally acknowledged as the optimum height above the deck?

It seems odd that the jrc instruction manual doesnt cover the placement of
the dome in more detail.


cheers
bruce
