There is a US Government computer program called ICEPAC that allows angles of reception and transmission to be calculated from any spot on earth to any other. Just enter the frequency, time, locations, etc. Great maps and charts too! I have used it on 80 meters but not 160. The angles are lower than you may expect. From Tucson to Europe short path I use .4 degrees to 14 degrees for a day in December that I was testing with. The program is FREE! Don w7dd |
