I am trying to determine what would be the lowest angle from which one could expect to receive DX signals? It seems that at one time I read 5 degrees but I've done some research and can't find the an
There's not really a simple answer to this question. The best method of analysis would be to use the program HFTA, which comes with the ARRL Antenna book. Here's a link to the manual: http://www.arrl
There's no easy answer to this. I went through the same exercise before I bought this QTH. Just some more questions: - What direction is the hill ? Is it an important contest direction that you would
Hi Tony, It all will depend on the height of yor planned antennas. As long they will not produce useful low angle radiation below 6° those 5.8°degrees will do no harm anyway. Best is to simulate it w
Hi, Tony. The optimum angle (takeoff or reception) for signals is a function of your latitude/longitude, the particular path you are trying to work, and the magnitude of solar flux. N6BV ran tons of
Hello, That is an interesting question. I saw sometime ago on PJ2Tīs website (http://www.pj2t.org/) some information about the height that the antenna should be to be more efficient regarding the d
