>>The height of the towers controls the takeoff angle for the skywave. If I understand it correctly, the shorter towers give off more high-angle radiation, which means a shorter distance to the first skip back to ground. There will still be skywave if they raise the height of the towers, but it will come off the towers at a lower angle and skip back to ground at a greater distance...ideally somewhere in central or northern BC instead of metro Vancouver.<<
I wonder if there will be some "fix" in the future to try and help the situation as you described? I would think something would be done.
