Summary

Meteorological measurements on two experimental microwave radio links in New England are presented. The links were from Pack Monadnock in N.H. to Prospect Hill in Waltham, Mass., in 1983, and from Saddleback Mountain in N.H. to Prospect Hill in 1984. These data are then used in ray-trace programs to determine multipath delays and variations in the angle of arrival at the receiver. Several cases of low-level ducts due to inversions caused by radiational cooling are analyzed. Keywords include: Microwave radio, Atmospheric refraction, and Line-of-sight communications.
