The height of the towers controls the takeoff angle for the skywave. If I
understand it correctly, the shorter towers give off more high-angle
radiation, which means a shorter distance to the first skip back to
ground. There will still be skywave if they raise the height of the
towers, but it will come off the towers at a lower angle and skip back to
ground at a greater distance...ideally somewhere in central or northern BC
instead of metro Vancouver.
