Question Spreader mounting a Radar dome

I looking at purchasing a Garmin GMR18HD for my 40 foot boat. I'm was going to purchase a mast mount for it, but as I socially race the boat, I'm concerned about the foresail being caught in the radar. I'm considering mounting the Garmin on the upper spreader, and wonder if anyone has tried this, is the radar performance compromised?

Thanks in advance

Bob
