Bernhard,

your situation is not oo bad, there are worse scenarios here in Austria.
Aome of my frieds operate from similar locations.

Please keep in mind, that VHF and UHF do verry much reflect from your
surrounding "masks", and you would not believe what is possible to reach
without line of sight.

So any installation of antennas, suitable for the band, will do the job.
There is another pointto be payed attention to: Try to use high gain
verticals, like the ones from diamond, for VHF/UHF. Sometimes the
reflections arrive from different sides at the same time. With a high gain
beam you could miss the most of them, or even cannot tell the direction
where they are coming from.

Please specify the expression "Decametric" in frequency/MHz terms. There are
too many of different bands to be included in this aerea of spectrum.

BTW, nice place to put up a station!

| Hello,
|
|
|
| I am interested by all experiments concerning the installation and the
type
| of antennas to be used for a station located in mountain. Decametric band
| and VHF.If possible !
|
|
|
| Situation:
|
| French Alps
|
| 1.300 meters of altitude.
|
| QTH : 45° 27' 24" North - 6° 41' 56" East
|
| Locator JN35IK
|
|
|
| Mask in the north located at 1.000 m. far, altitude 2.300 m.
|
| Mask in the south located at 4.500 m. far, altitude 2.300 m.
|
| Mask in the west located at 3.000 m. far, altitude 1.800 m.
|
| Mask in the East located at 1.500 m. far, altitude 1.900 m.
|
| Mask in western south located at 8.000 m. far, altitude 2.600 m.
|
|
|
| Have a large ground, possibility of installing any type of material
|
|
| Thanks in advance for any suggestion
