Hello,

It seems to me that the equivalent heights for oxygen and water vapour (ITU-R P.676) are given in km. Although not clearly stated, it is then multiplied by a specific attenuation in dB/km, and other distances are in km in the same Recommendation.

In ITU-Rpy, the value returned is in metres, and gives very low values (1 to 5 m). I believe the value should be returned in km instead of m, although I have not checked if it matches the value returned by the actual Recommendation. The documentation should also be modified.

Thanks for reporting this @esqt.

I think that you are right, and the returned value should indeed be in km. I have changed both the units and documentation.
