The 195 yoke mounting was nice because it hung down over the front of

If you had a yoke mounted timer built in, you couldn't use the timer,
however.
I found the RAM suction cup to be a very flexible mounting option. I
prefer to place the mount in the lower corner of the windscreen. This
places it where it will not interfer while scanning for traffic and
places it in view when scanning the instrument panel.

I don't know, my 396 hangs down in front of the yoke just fine
(Cherokee), and does not obstruct my DG the way the 195 did; and worse,
the buttons on the 195 were positioned at the top of the unit, which
made using it in flight somewhat awkward.

If I had an airplane where the yoke itself obstructed the GPS mount, I'd
probably consider a RAM yoke mount, or simply move the unit to a
suction-cup or other type of mount.
