- Is there someone, here, who can direct me, or tell me, how to convert, or would convert 600N to sq ft wind load. I have acquired a Titanex DLP-18, log periodic, and want to make sure my tower can han

- 600N is 134.9lbf, so now you just need the conversion from the antenna area to force. David Robbins K1TTT e-mail: mailto:k1ttt@arrl.net web: http://www.k1ttt.net AR-Cluster node: 145.69MHz or telnet:

- 600 newtons = 134.885366 pounds force 125 kilometers per hour = 77.671399 miles per hour PSF = .004V^2 PSF @ 77.67 mph = .004(77.67)^2 PSF = 24.13 sq ft = (total pounds force / PSF) sq ft = 134.9/24.

- Thank you to all who replied! And, so quickly! I have the necessary calculation, and my tower will handle it! Thank you, again! Lance WNØL -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter. We are a comm

- A Newton is a measure of Force Sq Ft is a measure of Area I think you're looking for #-ft ... force, right? Don N8DE _______________________________________________ __________________________________

- That's because Titanex is actually giving you useful engineering data.. a load at a velocity. 600 N * 1/4.5 lb/N = 133 lb You're asking to convert a single data point into an equivalent area, which,

- Except that he cited 120 km/hr, not 125 km/hr, so 75 mi/hr.. which is a small difference.. BUT I get 14.4 lb/sf are you sure about 0.004? I use 1/391 or about 0.0025 _________________________________
