I'm wondering if anyone knows, or knows how to find out, the following
function for skywave propagation:
angle <- compute_arrival_angle(height,distance,frequency,hops)
Where height is height of the antenna above ground, and distance is the
distance from the other station. This would seem to be something likely
already solved by someone. I'm interested in knowing when the same signal
arriving from the same station on, say, two _and_ three hops, what the
respective arrival angles are for two and three hops. I'm also curious if the
height above ground parameter makes much difference.
