Announcing SPLAT! version 1.1.0

From: John Magliacane (terhi.victor@logonet.com)
Date: Thu Jan 29 2004 - 23:43:02 EET


SPLAT!, a terrain and RF path analysis application for Linux/Unix,
has been extensively modified by J. D. McDonald in January 2004 to
include the Longley-Rice propagation model using C++ code from NTIA/ITS.

In addition to analyzing line-of-sight propagation paths, SPLAT! now
generates multi-color maps illustrating predicted signal strengths
(path loss), path loss graphs, path loss reports, and terrain height
graphs. The default Earth radius as well as the default line-of-sight
and path loss analysis range used by SPLAT! may also be modified using
new command-line options.

splat.c was renamed to splat.cpp to reflect changes necessary to merge
with Longley-Rice C++ code. A C++ compiler (gcc/g++) is now required
to compile SPLAT!.

This new release supercedes the older 1.0.3 version of SPLAT!

For futher information, please see the SPLAT! web site at:

Until its release is made available through ibiblio.org and
its mirrors, SPLAT! may be downloaded via http at:

Happy SPLATting! :-)

73, de John, KD2BD
