configured.

16 Configure a second recorder radio (

RECORDER_B) if you are creating a redundant setup.

17 Configure any backup recorder radios if required.

5.3 Create Plan and Map

Using the documents provided for the job (survey, planned LIU locations, and so on), create

a plan to plot radio locations and map the layout of the radios.

Keep the following in mind as you create the layout plan:

i Point the radio pairs directly at each other whenever possible maintaining line-of-sight

around obstructions (see “Maintain Line-of-Sight” on page 112).

i Use a tool such as Google Earth or Global Mapper to create an Elevation Profile to assist

with determining the best locations for radio towers. See “Creating a Google Earth

Elevation Profile” on page 113 for an example.
