My personal experience has been that for deep fringe applications, the combination of an XG-91 and a Y**713 is the pinnacle of consumer grade antennas. Those antennas have narrow forward beam patterns compared to panel and LPDA designs.

If I'm fighting multipath, I look to a narrow beam, high gain antenna. On the other hand, If fluttering foliage is the problem, I look to alternate mounting options and/or my chainsaw.

Please don't be offended, I get the sense you hope for someone to step up and give you a money back guaranty or, you know in your gut that the solution is to get over or around the trees.

I can't offer to buy an almost new Fracarro and I already own an XG91.
