[TowerTalk] FW: FW: Tower height

[Matt]

Thanks Paul for Good advice...   I found Microdem rather cumbersome to
install & set up and was not particularly intuitive to use...

>    The good news is that there is
FREE detailed terrain data available via download for most all of the
continental US available from the USGS, as well as a nifty Freeware program
called Microdem..."

K6TU now offers a free automated service that produces terrain radials in
1-degree increments in NED 1/3 arc-second resolution.  He has taken more
than 90% of the work out of the process.  In fact, neither map data imports
nor Microdem is needed, only HFTA.

http://k6tu.net

After free registration, click on "NEW," then "TERRAIN ANALYSIS REQUEST." 
The a link to the result is sent via e-mail.  Extract into a folder, start
HFTA, then tell HFTA the location of the files.  Done.

You're now an HFTA power user.

Paul, W9AC
