Check out http://www.heywhatsthat.com for a panorama terrain profile.

Click the New Panorama tab then select the options/fill in blanks on the
left hand sid of the page.  The crosshairs on the map can be dragged with
the mouse to the exact location.  Once the panorama is created, clicking
anywhere on the map will show the earth profile in the middle box.  Areas
shaded in red are line of sight from the location and elevation set when
creating the profile.  The upper left of the page has what should be a
permanent link to the panorama.

This link is from my tower near the house at the 40 foot level where my
dual-band VHF/UHF antenna is mounted:
