Rewrite the NLOS post to reflect what microwaveprop has learned:
M-refractivity and dM/dh as the actual duct discriminant, the four
duct taxonomy with radiation ducts as the North Texas mechanism,
binary duct detection as a coin flip, low pressure beating high,
shallow boundary layer winning, PWAT sweet spot, seasonal pattern
(spring worst, summer best), troposcatter as the floor, and real
numbers for the 65 km QTH-to-W5HN/B path.
New interactive scenes: N vs M side-by-side refractivity profile,
pressure/HPBL/binary-duct bar chart, band-vs-dawn enhancement,
PWAT sweet spot with draggable cursor, monthly ducting probability,
and a 10 GHz link-budget decomposition showing how the 36 dB
diffraction gap gets closed.
Polish pass across all scenes: softer palette, rounded stroke
caps/joins, prettier slider styling in scene.css and nlos.css,
signal-pulse animations on NF cascade / single-stage / LNA
placement, trail persistence on the ray-trace scene, animated
glints along trapped rays in the duct scene, and animated TCP
sequence diagrams.
Add local-serve preview mode so future-dated posts show up on
zola serve but stay hidden on the deployed build.
New post cascaded-noise-figure (scheduled 2026-04-29) with four
interactive scenes on noise floor, single-stage NF, the Friis
formula as a block builder, and LNA placement.
Upgrade the three static TCP scenes (data, sliding window, UDP)
to animated packet flow using a shared drawPartialPacket primitive.
Expand IDEAS.md with roughly thirty more post concepts across
electronics, networking, ham radio, microwave, and longer arcs.
Add outbound links to relevant first-mentions across posts:
Fresnel zone, effective Earth radius, atmospheric duct, HRRR,
BJT, common-emitter, TCP/UDP RFCs, slow start, QUIC, Friis,
noise figure, Boltzmann constant. Scrub Unicode arrows and
multiplication symbols out of prose and scene labels.
