Introduction to CONTOURTM

CONTOUR is a computer program for the PC that specializes in the creation of distance to contour tables for submission to the Federal Communications Commission. This program computes terrain roughness, calculates FCC and PTP distance to contour tables, graphs and truncates radials, prints profile graphs, and calculates depression angles, electrical, and mechanical beam tilt.
