Currently your options for EMANE loss between nodes (pathloss) are:
1. X,Y locations using GUI and properly setting the pixels-per-meter scale
2. lat/long/alt location events using 2-ray/freespace pathloss mode
3. using pathloss events, directly specify dB path loss between node pairs

If you're using #2, a tool like Google Earth or similar may help with authoring 
geographic waypoints; for #3 it seems that you really would need to understand 
what you were doing and what the SINR curves look like...

Attached is an example CORE Python script that adds N nodes to an EMANE 802.11 
network. In this example, I've changed the pathloss mode to 'pathloss'. You can 
see the resulting setting in /tmp/pycore.*/*phy.xml. You could change any of 
the 802.11 MAC/PHY parameters at that same line in the code. I'll include this 
example in the CORE source under core/daemon/examples/netns/ (for future 
snapshots/releases.)
