Site elevations<br />

Path length<br />

• The program calculates this using the ‘Antenna’ option under ‘graphics’. You<br />

first need to select the appropriate frequency using the ‘Config Other’ settings.<br />

• The ‘Antenna’ menu allows you to fix EITHER end of the link at a particular<br />

height <strong>and</strong> it will calculate the necessary height at the other end.<br />

• Assume neither antenna is fixed by leaving both fields blank <strong>and</strong> press<br />

‘Enter’.<br />

• Program now calculates both antenna heights. Write these down along with<br />

the site elevations <strong>and</strong> the path length.<br />

(Note: Fix antenna at A (main) at say 24 m, then calculate antenna heights at RTU.)
