I can go at least 100ft up a tree at my parents house. At the apartment where height really matters, I probably can go another 8ft from the floor of the balcony.




This is the overhang of the 3rd floor balcony looking out towards that large tree in the cemetery above the Wilco sign. My parents are approximately straight through the telephone pole in the middle of the photo (left of the tree).

There is no getting over those trees, so the signal would have to push around/through them.

(EDIT: Found out Ecomodder orients all photos with the longest side horizontal, so it screws with portrait photo orientation. Adding white space on the sides to make the width 1 pixel longer than the height corrected the orientation.)
