Re: Signs of foliage causing dropouts of signal?

Get to tree-trimming, or apply some defoliant.

I had a quarter-mile link through foliage and it would work decently enough until summer came along and it rained for more than 10 minutes. Wet leaves are a signal-sponge. Consider also that signal is not like a laser beam. Anything any in the Fresnel zone path will be an obstacle to radio signal, which could be a tree some feet off to the side.
