Fall of late 2023

Having been moved out of the city and back to my roots in the country, I’ve been finding a few minutes here and there to work on and build up my QTH VHF/UHF station.

Not having the high noise floor of the suburbs and more options on gaining height out in the country of central Texas, I was curious of the terrain limitations and was pointed towards the HAAT caclulator on the ARRL site.
