Same here - the reason for the way that I positioned it was so that I could see the display while driving. Where it is in the interior seems to have little to no effect on signal sensitivity.

I have a 60C, which has horrible reception. Hence then antenna. The 6CSX is much much better.
Ah, that makes sense. FWIW, the unit I originally mounted in that spot was an eTrex Legend, which didn't have great sensitivity either and pretty much needed to be there to receive a decent signal. The location worked well from a visibility standpoint, though, so I just carried it over when I upgraded to the 60CSX.

Markos; For the record said:
What year did you pull this OEM radio out of and the Ipod adapter you refer to what is that and what does it let you do just control the volume etc? I did something similar to my Chevy p/u but wasn't that impressed b/c you still need the Ipod itself handy for all functions... I'm not into the Aftermarket radio stuff though cause its too much of a targer where I have to park at....
