do branches effect signal

[halfax]

just wondering if i need to do a little prunning,

[ouagadougou]

Yes they do.

The more leaves the worse the attenuation.

The wetter the leaves etc the worse the attenuation.

I put a monoblock up for the neighbour who had hotbird, astra 1 could not be tuned in, a fir tee two doors away was obscuring it.

It couldn't be cut so we moved the dish to the other side of the garden, then no probs.
