The radio modem has to be located under the GPS antenna in order to minimize any risk of GPS signal obstruction. In view of the transmitted radio signal, there is no risk of interference between both signals as the frequency bands used are very far from each other. With the ProMark3 RTK system, Magellan provides a 25-cm long, 5.8″ extension that allows you to install your radio between the GPS antenna and the tripod.
