Tv Antennas and Tv Reception

The testing is to see what reception is like with the trees between the receiving antenna and the transmitting antenna. I suspect will be required to do tree thinning. Cutting away branches and leaves. Leaves and branches do a real fine job of absorbing and reflecting Tv transmissions. Tree thinning is actually good for trees. Lets the air flow through and sun light in and helps keep insects cleared out that can damage trees. If the trees are reducing and blocking reception , also mount antenna/s higher to receive over the tops of trees or find a opening between the trees or find a way to get around the trees. I am Not saying that you will have big problems with reception , I am pointing out situations , the only way to find out is to install the antenna and etc. .
