    OK Ed, and anyone else. My question. All this talk so far is about 
trees. There is one organization that will only cut their DA field grass 
once every two years. When I first heard this, I said, "You mean twice a 
year". Nope, only once every two years. How much does 365 to700 days 
worth of grass effect the signal? It gets about 36-48 inches tall by 
that time.
