Peter,
please find attached the AZ-Elevation-Chart for my location 8.606 Deg
East / 52.957 Deg North (northern Germany abt 30 km south of the city of
Bremen). The M12+'s elevation mask angle is set to 10 Deg and the
antenna has free sight to the horizont into West, North and East
direction while in South direction a group of trees and the pole itselt
that it is mounted to with an cantilever arm generates some negative
peaks in the chart.
Best regards
Ulrich Bangert
