Section 04
The Array
Feed several towers with controlled amplitude and phase and the radiated field adds in one direction and cancels in another. That is how a station protects a distant one it has never heard, and why a site can look like two transmitters on a plot.

Every entry is one propagation or hardware fact and the operating consequence of it.
- Phase and patternTwo or more towers fed with a controlled phase difference produce a pattern that protects one direction and reinforces another.Entry 04.1
