GPS antenna location

I have been getting conflicting advice about relative position in
regard to my radar dome. Both will be mounted on my mast about 12 to
24 inches apart. I have a choice of having the GPS right below the
bottom of the dome or I could put an extension and have it extend a
few inches above the dome. Any advice?
Thanks

Your mast will mask out quite a few of the satellites and make reception
difficult.
Set it on the pulpit rail away from any object that may prevent a view of
the whole sky.
The height is quite irrelevant for GPS reception.
