I don't have data on chalk but since the dielectric constant of most other types of soil is in the range of 10-15 (relative dielectric constant), this value might be a good guess. For conductivity there is much more variation, from 500mS/m (loam) downto 0.01mS/m (dry sand). 73, Rik ON7YD At 12:51 2/02/02 -0000, you wrote: >Does anyone know the approximate conductivity (mS/m) and dielectric >constant of chalky soil? > >Regards, >Peter, G3LDO > >e-mail > >Web > > > > >
