Greetings,
Also, check out "YT," by N6BV, which allows you to play "what if" with
the height of horizontal antennas (including stacks). YT overlays the
resultant antenna patterns over a graph of all potential arrival angles
(from the area of the world of interest), and YT includes the effects of
your local terrain. YT is bundled with the latest edition (18th) of the
ARRL Antenna Book.
Good luck with the project!
