variations in density and temperature can cause some slight refraction (bending) of waves over distances.

Direct modes (line-of-sight)

Line-of-sight refers to radio waves which travel directly in a line from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna, often also called direct-wave. It does not necessarily require a cleared sight path; at lower frequencies radio waves can pass through buildings, foliage and other obstructions. This is
