An interactive map for checking terrain line of sight, Fresnel clearance, and tower height between two locations, aimed at GMRS, ham, and mesh users.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-11 issue.

For: GMRS, ham radio, and mesh-network planners
Worth noticing: The page says FAA obstacles appear from zoom 9, while mapped buildings appear from zoom 15.

Field notes

The workflow starts with two map taps, though the page also offers place search and coordinate entry. Users can switch among street, satellite, and topo views, then toggle data layers; the stated obstacle coverage changes by zoom level. Ham repeater data is attributed to HearHam and OpenStreetMap, while GMRS lists are handled through user-imported CSVs.
