This is pretty good.

I cannot find it right now, but I came across an interesting article that linked CB antenna height with line of site and described the potential advantage of the ground wave improvement per 1m of additional height. Cannot find the reference. Damn

Ha! Ha!
Finding the same with that app Alan. For a disabled man I don't half seem to be able to jump up and down great heights and all without moving. Probably my 'cr*p' Android phone?

You take it easy with that mountainous 1.5ft climb to that shack Alan mate!
The app is more stable in my radio room, showing me as 92ft and the Ordinance shows me as 85ft. Wouldn't mind but I'm as far away from the coast as you can reasonably get with 400+ft hills all around me! If it wasn't for the glacial wash East of me and the ionosphere I'd have no radio.
I've had a play, probably going to uninstall that app now as it's not like I go anywhere....especially uphill!
