Subject: Re: antenna height measurement question

I would say a faulty assumption.  You're talking above sea level which 
really doesn't mean that much.  If you are doint mountain top to 
mountain top, perhaps.  Mostly what matters is your heighth above 
average terane as we use to call it in commercial radio systems.  If you 
tell me your beam is at 5280 or whatever, I'm thinking wow, what a 
tower.  Everybody just says how tall their antenna is.  My new tower, 
when erected will be a 90 foot free standing tower with a mosley clasic 
33 at the top 90 feet.
