[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 852221, member: 325666"] The assumption made by the dishpointer app is that the dish is at ground level ..thus the obstacle locator if it suggests a height of 8.1 m at that distance is required ..requires that you then add the dishes height to the 8.1mtrs .. Thus if your dish is actually at a height of say 5 mtrs .. this would easily see over and obstacle at 8.1 mtrs at that distance.. The obstacle would have to be 8.1 + 5mtrs ..ie 13.1 mtrs tall.. So if you can guestimate the height of the tree ..and is less than 13.1 mtrs allowing say 1m then t'would have to be taller than 12 mtrs to be a problem. No idea of your dish's actual height ..but you get the idea.. good luck VS [/QUOTE]
