Elevation plot at 50.3 MHz

At 100 percent of distance per DL6WU formula:

Stacking Dist.    DL6WU Formula
H-plane               6.245 m
E-plane               7.549 m

Free space and with lower Yagi at 10 m above 'perfect ground'

  

At 90 percent of distance per DL6WU formula:

Stacking Dist.    DL6WU Formula
H-plane               5.621 m
E-plane               6.794 m
