Hurrican Sandy

Hey guys, just wanted to give an update on my OTA antenna situation.
I was getting dropouts in the spring/summer when the tree in front of my antenna (pin oak) filled in and I was constantly getting on the roof to re-aim it between the limbs to catch a glimpse of the Eastern sky.
During Hurricane Sandy a large Blue Spruce fell on the house - this tree was also in direct line of sight to the tower.
Turns out this tree was the culprit to my bad reception - after it went down my signal was perfect - no drop outs - even with the pin oak in full bloom.
There's one good thing that came out of that SOB storm Sandy.
