I've seen a few with the receiver (Lowrance) mounted just in front of the windshield but I am afraid this will harm reception? Any ideas from you vetrans out there? Thanks for the help!!

I have 2 mounted just in front of the windsheild on my ProV,(one on each side) they are both on rail mounts on the railing. They work fine there and I have never had a problem getting or staying locked on.

Mine is also mounted with velcro behind the windshield per PJ's recommendation. Works great and is protected from bumps and hits.

I have both of mine before the windshield, one on each side. My last rig I had one towards the back and the other on the bow. The bow one seemed to get in the way when getting off at the dock.
