If one writes the equation, for elevation angles of nulls and maximums, in
terms of free-space wavelength instead of frequency, an even more simple
equation is obtained :
Beta = ArcSin( N * Lambda / 4 / Height ) degrees.
Where Lambda is free-space wavelength
and Height is height above ground.
When N is odd, Beta corresponds to a maximum in the pattern.
When N is even, Beta correspnds to a null in the pattern.
