Interesting reading on the foliage attenuation effects.
I almost experienced “attenuation by foliage” when the storm blew
through this morning. I’ve got a half-dozen tree limbs laying in the
yard not far from the tower. Looks like the antennas were not hit,
though the 6m LFA I installed on July 3rd will have to be realigned on
the mast and secured more firmly.
My brother-in-law refers to the maple trees as “self-pruning”, and that
wouldn’t be a worry except they are 10-15 feet higher than my antenna;)
Hope you all survived the wind and rain.
