I plan to mount the HB AS-GPS-HS over the top of the ducer if there is no magnetic interference present which is located on its own downrod at the front next to the TM. That said this won't matter that much since they will be only about 2ft apart but since my Ultera-TM has its own gps with i-pilot link when I select any of the functions like the "Go TO" waypoint will the coridance still be from the TM-gps or the external gps?

NOTE: the i-Pilot Link’s GPS is always used for controlling the boat. Otherwise:
When you tell the i-Pilot Link to use Spot-Lock it uses the GPS from the i-Pilot Link.
When you mark a Spot-Lock on the Humminbird or use the active cursor to mark a Spot-Lock on the Humminbird you will use the GPS from the Humminbird unit to mark this location.
When you mark a waypoint on the Humminbird you use the GPS from the Humminbird.
When you use the i-Pilot Link’s remote and press and hold the Spot-Lock button it marks a waypoint using the Humminbird's GPS. This is a normal waypoint not a Spot-Lock waypoint.
When you use the i-Pilot Link’s remote and you press and release the Spot-Lock on the remote you will use the i-Pilot Link's GPS.
When you initiate record for an iTrack from i-Pilot Link or the Humminbird while the two units are talking you will be using the i-Pilot Link's GPS to record the iTrack.
When you initiate record an iTrack from the Humminbird and it is not talking to the i-Pilot Link then you will use the Humminbird's GPS.
When the user initiates a Go To function on a previously saved navigational item (Spot-Lock, Waypoint, iTrack) and the Humminbird is connected, the GPS coordinates always come from what is stored in the Humminbird and is sent to the i-Pilot Link for navigation.

I appreciate you putting that info up Rickie; Wow doubt I can remember all of it though glad I was able to put the external GPS only 18" from the TM gps.
Rickie is a wonder. Here is my solution for mounting the AS GPS HS after talking to Ricky. It is phenomenal and so handy for navigating to waypoints. I never thought about getting the AS GPS HS as I mistakenly thought the Minn Kota puck and gps were all I needed. Boy was I wrong and I am so glad I listened to Rickie.Attachment 291836
And, yes it was taped down first per suggestion from Ricky.

Rickie, not Ricky. Sorry, I think spelling your name is important. Dennis
