You can test positions for the AS GPS HS antenna by using a small handheld magnetic compass...

If the hand deflects at all (in a certain spot on the boat)...there is magnetic interference in that spot...

Continue moving the handheld compass to different potential mounting spots on the boat until there is no movement of the compass hand...
