[Antennas] Antenna direction

Sun, 24 Nov 2002 00:08:57 +0100

Hello Ron.
Try looking at a pice of software like DX-Atlas. Not only will it give you
the beam direction for any call prefix but it will show you on a map where
the place is, how far away it is, when the sun rises and sets there etc.
New prefixes are plenty and it is a hastle to keep your beam chart up to
date, for DX-Atlas you just download updated datafiles and dont bother
remembering all the stuff.

DX-Atlas can be found at http://www.dxatlas.com

I dont know if there are alternatives that give you the same information,
but you dont lose anything by downloading the evaluation version and look
for yourself.

Hope you can use this infomration.

Greetings from Denmark.
