[TowerTalk] Slight correction

[Bill Hider]

The formula for the wind area should have said:

"the integral from 0 to Dia of 1/2 surface area of each tube (0.5 x Pi x
Dia), where Dia is the Outside diameter of the tube"

This is because only one side of the tube is exposed to the wind at any
time.  I read and re-read my prior posting, sent it, then saw that I left
off the 1/2.


Bill, N3RR
