Hi, Gale:

Assuming that your dipole is a single wire, right-click on the end you wish
to rotate.  This will give you a popup menu.  The next to the last item is
Elevation Rotate End.  Click on that, and then enter the rotation, -45 (in
this case), and click OK.  Voila!  The selected end of your antenna should
be 45 degrees lower than the other end.  It sure beats looking up trig
functions and trying to remember which one goes where.  :-)

Bill, N5TU

How do you rotate a wire end down, like taking a horizontal dipole and
configuring it as a sloper? In the WIRES menu, I'm telling it to rotate -45
deg in the Z (height) axis. I thought that should lower that wire end at a
-45 degree angle.

I'm much more used to V3.0!!!
