GPS antenna

The GPS antenna mounts to the end of a crossarm by using a 0.75-inch IPS threaded pipe and a 0.75-inch-by-1-inch Nu-Rail® fitting or right-angle mounting kit. Mount the GPS antenna above obstructions, but with the shortest cable possible. The GPS antenna will not receive GPS signals through steel roofs, steel walls, or possibly concrete. Heavy foliage, snow, and ice will attenuate the GPS signal. An unobstructed view provides better GPS performance resulting in fewer ( or no) missed transmissions. Poor GPS antenna placement increases the number of missed transmissions, and possibly stops all GPS transmissions.
