§ 80.771   Method of computing coverage.

   Compute the + 17 dBu contour as follows:

   (a) Determine the effective antenna height above mean sea level
   according to the procedures in § § 80.757-80.761.

   (b) Determine the effective radiated power according to § 80,765.
   Determine for each radial the distance from the antenna site to the +
   17 dBu point of field strength using procedures of § § 80.765 and 80.767.

   (c) Plot on a suitable map each point of + 17 dBu field strength for
   all radials and draw the contour by connecting the adjacent points by a
   smooth curve.
