No. It's due to the non-zero angular diameter of the sun plus atmospheric refraction... See: <http://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/equinoxes.html> Michael Keane K1MK k1mk@alum.mit.edu

While trees aren't covered by zoning or building regulations and there may be no specific rules governing ham-antenna-in-trees, it doesn't necessarily mean that placement of an antenna in a tree is s

True enough. Sometimes... and at other times it can be totally demoralizing to be forced into pulling down all of one's hard work. There are many ways to skin a cat. But, as with the rules that might

With great, great care. Those pressures probably represent the peak pressure on a flat surface and the tower was old enough that capacities are based upon EIA RS-222-C (or earlier); "Zone A" under RS

The point is not that there are changes in the distribution and magnitudes of the loads and moments but that "add it all up" provides an answer which is to first order accurate for guyed towers and e

Pete, No it isn't. Scattering by itself might be expected to partially fill in the nulls, reducing their depth. If the models predict a greater intensity near zero elevation than in the peak of the p

Really. Is it such a radical concept? Because the two antennas would have to possess different radiative resistances. Add to that the century and a half of physics subsequent to James Clerk Maxwell t
