There was a government site which would plot your horizon given your
lattitude and longitude...as I remember it was used to plot coverage for
either FM stations or Cellular sites. For some reason it was disabled last
year and hasn't been up since. Sounded like a
"legal" type problem....
If anyone knows of an operating location for this program, I would be
interested also....
Thanks...

<< Hello all,
I have been using Satscape to track the birds. So the info I have found
out about my QTH is that
I am surrounded by mountains.( I knew this with out Satscape <grin>) I have
calculated by using the sun and some of the birds that my
minimum horizon is between 18-25 deg. I am lucky from azimuth 170-230 it
goes down to 8 deg. So what I am
looking for is away to figure out the time and how long the birds are above
these minimums. >>
