VHF (Very High Frequency) radio is line-of-sight because its short wavelengths travel in straight paths and cannot follow the curve of the Earth or pass through solid physical blocks. VHF frequencies range from 30 MHz to 300 MHz, meaning their wavelengths are relatively short (about 1 to 10 meters). Unlike low-frequency radio waves, short waves do not bounce off the ionosphere or easily diffract around large obstacles. Because the signal is blocked by the curvature of the Earth, raising your antenna height dramatically increases your transmission range. #radio #sailing #sailingschool #sailboat
During a high-speed regatta, a huge racing yacht charges up from the windward side and overtakes a smaller sailboat. The big yacht heels hard under powerful wind while the smaller boat suddenly loses speed in the wind shadow. Crew quickly adjusts sails as waves slam both boats. Pure sailing intensity captured on an onboard action camera. 👉 Subscribe and share for more epic ocean racing footage. #Shorts #SailingRace #RegattaRacing #BoatLife #OceanAction #WindPower #SailingLife #ViralShorts
