Howdy... I was playing around with this propagation software on my
friend's laptop. I had a coverage simulation running on 98.1MHz using a vertically polarized dipole. I decided to pick a location where they have rolling plains to be as close to an ideal freespace calculation. Here is my spec: transmitter location: +41.083N, -98.395W antenna height: 80 to 120 ft antenna type: dipole (I decided to use 0dB for my gain just for reference) polarization: vertical terrain data: DTED propagation model: TIREM frequency: 98.1MHz system losses: 5dB TX power: 50W So I came up with the following data: antenna height: 80 ft distance where power level is -110dBW: 13.3 miles antenna height: 100 ft distance where power level is -110dBW: 12.32 miles antenna height: 120 ft distance where power level is -110dBW: 13.3 miles Why did my signal level drop at 100 ft? |
