ADAHRS and GPS Proximity

[RV9APlane]

Hi, sorry if this has been answered a zillion times before but I did a search and didn't come up with the answer I'm looking for.  I intend to mount the ADAHRS in my RV9A similar to other posts behind the baggage bulkhead just under the top of the skin.  I had also considered mounting the GPS receivers on top of the skin just aft of the slider canopy.  Is there a proximity issue if these two devices are mounted in these locations?  Minimum separation?  Thanks!

The GPS is low power and does not have a lot of ferrous metal. That said, we'd still recommend >1' distance. You might be able to get less than that, but you'd want to test it in your proposed location in the same relative orientations.

The GPS antenna does or does not have a lot of ferrous metal?  From your second sentence, it sounded like you meant to say that it doesn't have a lot.
