Solar Panels?

Hi again:

Well, I haven't been able to swap everything out yet because I'm waiting for WM and HD orders to arrive... (18 ga pole, dielectric jelly, more coax connectors, etc...)

On another reply you spoke of Solar Panels possibly interfering with the OTA signals.

It just so happens that my other neighbor, 2 doors down behind us, has panels and this is directly where I am pointing my antenna towards Mt. Wilson ( ~280 degrees west)
(see attached pic)

I notice that signals drop on many stations late afternoon, no matter how many times I tweak my antenna, and then great signal after about a couple hours....

How likely, in your opinion, would solar panels be the culprit?
