[TowerTalk] Busting a Pileup

[David Aslin G3WGN]

Love that analysis Brian.  Even though it's on an unmeasured distribution and other factors will be at play (I'd add voice characteristics and call timing to those you noted) it gives guidance as to how much effort to put into the station system.
At the practical level, in addition to antenna changes, many folks can get that 0.5dB (or more) from better coax choices.  I'm amazed how many still choose RG213 without taking into account how much they are throwing away at 15m or higher bands...
