--==[ SPLAT! v1.2.3 Path Analysis ]==-- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transmitter site: paris_mountain_100 Site location: 34.9413 North / 82.4107 West (34° 56' 28" N / 82° 24' 38" W) Ground elevation: 2040.68 feet AMSL Antenna height: 100.00 feet AGL / 2140.68 feet AMSL Distance to w4djw: 6.94 miles Azimuth to w4djw: 74.80 degrees Depression angle to w4djw: -1.7957 degrees ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Receiver site: w4djw Site location: 34.9676 North / 82.2924 West (34° 58' 3" N / 82° 17' 32" W) Ground elevation: 1003.94 feet AMSL Antenna height: 20.00 feet AGL / 1023.94 feet AMSL Distance to paris_mountain_100: 6.94 miles Azimuth to paris_mountain_100: 254.87 degrees Elevation angle to paris_mountain_100: +1.6952 degrees ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Longley-Rice path calculation parameters used in this analysis: Earth's Dielectric Constant: 15.000 Earth's Conductivity: 0.005 Siemens/meter Atmospheric Bending Constant (N-units): 301.000 ppm Frequency: 146.520 MHz Radio Climate: 5 (Continental Temperate) Polarization: 1 (Vertical) Fraction of Situations: 50.0% Fraction of Time: 60.0% Transmitter ERP: 35 Watts ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary for the link between paris_mountain_100 and w4djw: Free space path loss: 96.75 dB Longley-Rice path loss: 96.65 dB Attenuation due to effects of terrain: -0.10 dB Field strength at w4djw: 69.36 dBuV/meter Voltage produced by a terminated 50 ohm 0 dBd gain antenna: 786.73 uV Voltage produced by a terminated 75 ohm 0 dBd gain antenna: 963.54 uV Mode of propagation: Line-Of-Sight Mode ------------------------------------------------------------------------- No obstructions to LOS path due to terrain were detected by SPLAT! Antenna at w4djw must be raised to at least 67.00 feet AGL to clear the first Fresnel zone. 60% of the first Fresnel zone is clear.
