Dude,
I have the 162 with the fixed antenna. I guess I would have probably just put it right behind the unit or off to one side near the gunwhale so no one would mess with it, spill a drink on it, etc....

Thanks,
That's my dilema. The antenna is small, but I want to mount it somewhere where its as unobtrusive as possible. Based on the instructions, it looks like it needs to have a clear view of the sky. Since the antenna can be mounted to a VHF type antenna base, maybe I'll but it next to my VHF antenna.

That looks like a good spot (I never would have thought of). Where did you put the antenna?
