Hey youall,
I want to model Rohn 25G as a transmitting antenna. Has anyone learned
how to do that fairly accurately in K6STI's AO program? In addition to
some length of regular straight sections, my tower has a factory 8'
tapered top section which I would extend with a 2" stinger and a
single-point pier base that is basically a 10 foot section with 3 feet
of taper to a flange added. It appears to be "factory" although I have
never seen one in person and it could be a one-off.
1. How do I model these tapers?
2. How do I model the tower itself? Do I call it "10-inch diameter
steel?" Larger? Smaller?
3. Do I have to re-learn calculus?
I would love to hear from anyone who has either done this or knows how
it is done.
Thanks in advance.
