3. Check that the profile is accurate and identify any obstructions that may affect signal quality.

   The profile can be verified using Google Earth(TM), maps, GPS data and site visits. It is particularly important to verify the antenna heights, to measure interference and to identify obstructions near both ends of the Fresnel zone.

   For more information, see Using Google Earth(TM).

4. Double-click on the profile. The Profile Editor is displayed. Enter an additional 7 meter high Obstruction at Range 0.7 km and a 4 meter high Obstruction at Range 0.846 km.

   The + and - buttons may be used to add and remove points. For more information, see Updating Link Profiles.
