<p>[QUOTE="RF Steve, post: 134137, member: 18630"]The rocky mountains make great antenna towers until something breaks down in the middle of winter, or even after a summer rain storm. While Height Above Average Terrain is one of the many determining factors in a transmitters coverage area. With the availability of Longley-Rice coverage maps I see little need to look up the HAAT of a given transmitter. In fact in hilly terrain it can become a worthless trivial number about like antenna mileage claims. While Longley-Rice coverage maps have known flaws they are the best tool we now have in predicting a signal coverage area.</p><p>Steve[/QUOTE]</p><p></p>
