[UK-CONTEST] UK-Contest Digest, Vol 86, Issue 24

[GM3YEH]

Hi Jim,

HFTA by Dean Straw is good.  It comes with the ARRL Antenna Book.  Terrain
data files are available for the UK.  Commercial grade software for terrain
modelling costs a lot of money.  Dean has presented some online webinars on
the use of HFTA that can still be accessed.  Contact me off list if you want
more info.
