6.3 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 vehicle turns.
2. The antenna is at least 5 feet away from other transmitting antennas (HF, VHF and
radar) that may generate signals that may interfere with the Free Way antennas. The
further away the antenna is from these other devices, the less impact their operation
will have on it.
3. Direct radiation into the antenna from vehicle radar, especially high power surveillance
radar arrays, is minimized. The radome should be as far away from the vehicle Radar
as possible and should NOT be mounted on the same plane as the vehicle Radar.
4. The antenna radome assembly should be rigidly mounted to the vehicle. If necessary,
reinforce the mounting area to assure that it does not flex due to the vehicle motion or
vibration.
If these conditions cannot be entirely satisfied, the site selection will inevitably be a
"best" compromise between the various considerations.
