I use RadioMobile for PtP path analysis and find it very useful and fairly predictive. I have never seen a manual or explanation on how to use it. I use the values suggested in the Aredn Docs and they seem to produce reasonable results that mirror reality, at least close enough.

There are symbols in the path diagrams I do not understand, For some paths, they are few or non-existent. For others, like the one attached, they are plentiful. They are circled in the attached image. Can anyone explain what these are? Thanks!

Population Density

It's not obvious (at all) but I ran into this problem as well. Took me a while but it's population density

Population covered
When performing a radio coverage study, the program access a population density database to determine the total population covered for both levels of signal. The quality of that database varies from one country to another. The database has a resolution of 30 arseconds and was derived from SEDAC - Columbia University. Red >=1000 (inhabitants per square kilometer), Orange >= 500, Yellow >= 100, Green >= 50, Turquoise >= 10, Cyan >= 5, Purple >= 1, Blue >= 0, Black = 0

Thanks, I NEVER would have guessed that! I was worried someone would ask me and I would look like an idiot (again) ;-)
