Dan has years of experience installing and
maintaining transmitters and associated equipment, retuning filters for
channel changes, setting up satellite dishes, microwave feeds and off
air pickups.
The link below points to a series of computer runs which generate
predicted received signal level maps based on the Longley Rice terrain
dependent propagation model. The results are .kml files which load into
Google Earth so that the user can "fly around" and see the predicted
signal level at various locations.
