57: SOFTWARE, Site Black Butte, Thu 13-Dec-2001 02:15:11 GMT, RF modems direction/dist
Checking the GPS position of the black butte site vs the site of the ranch RF modem the distance is 2 miles and the bearing is 101 degrees. I need to look and see, but I think we are directly 90 degrees. I am uncertain of the antenna beam width, but hopefully we are not far off the peak. I used the TOPO USA to find these values. Checking the profile we are also about 50 feet higher here than at the BB ranch police station. That is something else in our favor..... There apears to be no ridges between.
