+Title: SPLAT!
+Version: 1.1.1
+Entered-date: 2006-04-01
+Description: SPLAT! is a terrestrial RF propagation analysis tool for
+ the spectrum between 20 MHz and 20 GHz. SPLAT! provides
+ site engineering data such as the great circle distances
+ and bearings between sites, antenna elevation angles
+ (uptilt), depression angles (downtilt), antenna height
+ above mean sea level, antenna height above average
+ terrain, bearings and distances to known obstructions,
+ path loss based on the Longley-Rice Irregular Terrain
+ Model, and minimum antenna height requirements needed
+ to establish line-of-sight communication paths absent
+ of obstructions due to terrain. SPLAT! produces
+ reports, graphs, and highly detailed and carefully
+ annotated topographic maps depicting line-of-sight paths,
+ path loss, and expected coverage areas of transmitters
+ and repeater systems. Applications of SPLAT! include
+ site engineering, wireless network design, amateur
+ radio communications, frequency coordination,
+ communication system design, and terrestrial
+ television and radio broadcasting. SPLAT! requires
+ gnuplot version 3.7, libbzip-1.0.1 or later, and
+ zlib, as well as an application capable of displaying
+ PPM graphic files (xv, ImageMagick, xpaint, The GIMP, etc.).
