Declination: 8.7deg E
Tower locations (planned):
| tower | lat | lon | alt (m) |
|---|---|---|---|
| c | 38° 56.509'N | 106° 58.379'W | 2861 |
| d | 38° 56.504'N | 106° 58.369'W | 2861 |
| ue | 38° 56.507'N | 106° 58.395'W | 2861 |
| uw | 38° 56.522'N | 106° 58.378'W | 2863 |
On 28 Sep 2022, using an English tape measure, we found the following distances between the flagged locations:
Distance to the nearest fence line: ue: 32', uw: 33', d: 34'
Tower-to-tower distances:
ue-uw, uw-d, d-ue: all 111'
ue-c, uw-c: 62', d-c: 64' (i.e. center should be about a foot closer to d)
After the slight shift of c, we plan to build to these locations.
Might as well add guy wire tensions here (in pounds):
