Need to get a copy of the ARRL antenna book.

I'd say it would be easy for someone to run it for you, but the real 
value comes from having the terrain data, which is a somewhat complex 
process and location specific.

(although, I've thought about making some sort of web server that could 
take a call sign or lat/lon, generate the terrain files automatically. 
Seems like you could build some interface to Google Earth, for instance.

That's way down on the list of software projects though...
