Changing VHF antenna location...? line of sight calculator web page

So,

antenna height feet, horizon miles

Boat Coast Horizon
6 100 17
30 100 22

The range with the coastal stations doesnt change so much and the DSC calls
will be received from much further away. For emergency calls to the coast
the antenna difference is not so much, boat to boat is a different story.
