yep, til we switch to 450 we had one customer like this. the coolest part was 
you could watch him harvest his field by his rssi. it was a perfect example 
customer. two radios about 10 feet apart on the roof, each only worked half the 
year

Way back in the early days of FSK we did a poor mans spacial diversity for a 
customer.  Put an SM on either end of his roof, and told him to switch cables 
if it stopped working.

Has to have something to do with ground reflections changing with the crop.
A space diversity setup would cure it.

For those of you who don't have to deal with it, whatever it's called, this is 
what us flatlanders have to put up with.    At the top of the pipe, the radio 
would only get a maximum of -76, at it's current height, it's at -59.  All 
happened last week when that hayfield grew.  Signal was fine before then, and 
it steadily lost signal all last week.  (It is LOS to the tower, the tower is 
just directly in line with the pipe in the picture)
