Hi all What happens to the takeoff angle of a vee beam or rhombic when it is constructed on the side of a hill. If it is pointed downhill, is the angle smaller (to horizontal) thereby making it a bet

If the antenna is pointed perpendicular to vertical, then yes, the radiation angle , depending on the actual slope angle, and distance will favor lower angles. The degree of improvement depends larg

A goood rough approximation is that the take-off angle is reduced by the angle of slope of the Fresnel Zone. The equations for Fresnel Zone size are readily available in any good antenna handbook. To

Good. My future qth is on top of a gently sloping hill, maybe 10 degrees. I think I want a vee beam, but it will be pointing SE. It will be interesting to see how it works-maybe long path to Asia on

I've been playing around with HFTA trying to figure out the best height/ configuration for my antennas and it dawned on me I wasn't sure what the best take off angles are. I know low is better than h

That is a great question! I wish that there was an answer however it varies which is why many of us have antennas at different heights. I believe that there was a study showing the probability of dif

Several additional points to keep in mind: 1) Where in the mid-West are you? Southern Ohio has very different propagation than Northern Wisconsin. Your location will affect what parts of the world to

There's extensive data for that on the CD Rom that comes with the ARRL Antenna Book in the form of files that can be used with HFTA. The data files can be superimposed on the computed vertical patter

I consider use of the words "takeoff angle" to be VERY misleading, and cause a LOT of misconceptions. It is common to use the words "takeoff angle" to define the vertical angle at which field strengt
