What about the curvature of the earth?
- ck2 5y ago(after posting this I thought of "liquid/atmosphere only" planets and how they are round so obviously my initial thought process on this was wrong, I thought water followed the bottom of its curved-earth container while trying to remain level on top)
- orangepurple 5y agoThis is nonsense. Do you believe that water forms a cliff at the edge of the beach so that its curvature tangent to the center of the body of water is zero? Hilarious

- aeastw 5y agoI'm fairly sure water follows the curvature of the earth...

- sushibowl 5y agoOP chose a hill 250 meters above sea level, and also has an antenna about 5m high. According to a calculator I found[1] that puts the distance of the horizon at roughly 57km. So plenty of range to still be in LOS of the transmitter. [1] https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/earth-curvature https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/earth-curvature
