After I hit "send," I realized there are a couple of other factors at play, especially for Patrick's semi-DX reception. A taller antenna will have a different takeoff angle for the signal, so while groundwave strength might not change much, skywave strength will. It's very complicated science, with more than a little black magic involved, too. s _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
