Hi Stephan

Your posts seem to inply that the receive antenna will "see" the 20 meter
high transmitting antenna when the receiver antenna is in the shadow of the
80 meter hill. It seems that the receiver needs to be out of the shadow of
the hill unless you are able to estimate refraction from the hill.

But, your aparent confidance in the statement "0 feet" makes me wonder if
I have this problem wrongly analyzed. I have so much confidance in Richard
Fry's data that I had accepted his estimation of 270 meters to be as close
as you can estimate.

Do I misunderstand your post about what minimum height is needed?

Jerry

Hi Jerry,

how many shadows have you seen that are 20Km long?

______________

Can we count the shadow of the moon on the earth during a
fully-eclipsed sun?

If so, that's a bit more than 20 km.

Hi Stephan

Tell me where I have misunderstood the problem. I assumed the
transmitting antenna was Lower than the top of the hill. But, you seem to
imply that the transmitter can be seen even when the hill is blocking the
"view" to it.

I have actually never measured a shadow longer that a few feet, but I
assumed they continued to exist to infinity when an object blocks them from
view.

Well you see Jerry, the reason you only see it for a few feet is because the
attenuation of the light varies inversely with the distance from the object
that blocks the light. I think you have done a good job in making my point.
Thanks,

Hi Stephan

I now understand now that you do think you can receive 10 GHz signals
while the receiver is in the shadow caused by the mountain between you and
the transmitter. Do I understand you correctly?

Jerry
