How well does this work in valleys?

I sit on top of a hill in a hilly area about 10 miles from the transmitter. So I have no experience with being in a valley. My neighborhood has a lot of large old trees. I put the antenna up in the fall on the back side of my house and got good reception. When the leaves came out in the spring the reception deteriorated so I moved it to the front of the house where there were fewer trees in my line of sight to the transmitter and it has worked fine ever since. I give it a top rating.

This would probably be an issue in the valley's, it depends on the strength of the channel as to if you will receive it or not.

Zip 95121. In the valley and low ground not on the hill. I installed this antena 25ft above ground pointing 320 NW and 100ft RG6 cable quad shield from Monoprices.com. No amp, Also splitted into 3 TVs. I get 74 crystal clear channels out of 85 channels from the scan result.Fyi ... I paid $10 for this C1 @frys. Notes: use good cable and connector. I was planning to get bigger antena $100+ but I don't think that it will give me more channel so I'm happy with this current setup costed me $35 total.

Dirk, I live at the bottom of a pretty steep 50 foot cliff and I need to spray it with Roundup every year. They told me the sprayer would shoot a stream 20-25 feet. I'm banking on it! I haven't had a chance to test it but, I will tomorrow.

It moves by pushing on the front bar with your feet. Alternating pushing with your left then your right. I will say it is not good for hills, works best on flat paved or concrete surfaces.

Hi Joe. Yes, it works great for that and the main reason I purchased it. We were working on a second story eave from a first story roof. Just follow all safety precautions and tie of your ladder while you work.

I'm blocked by a lot of tall trees and some elevated terrain - not a mountain, but foothill features - and my booster works great. Went from barely a bar ever to two bars of service and even 4G occasionally.

These are relatively low power 2 way hand help radios. I get less than 5 watts out of them even on high power. They work well in conditions where there is direct line of sight between the two radios, or through a repeater. I have not tried them in mountainous terrain but in the city I have used them and had what I would call poor results over less than a mile without a repeater.

This device has worked very well for me keeping the moles away. It should work in any soil where moles have infested. The device is about 18" long and should be buried vertically except for the screw-on top.

Will work very well over many types of terrain for the first few (3) uses. But it breaks quickly and with only 30 day return window....good luck

Since it does raise and lower to the ground, I did use it in my driveway (blacktop) to pick up leaves. It did a nice job - it even picked up some cedar droppings as well, although not as well as the leaves. I found that it also works very well on even ground. For a lot of variation in the yard, I found that if you raise the brushes slightly, it works just fine. This is my new favorite yard tool for the fall!

The unit works well for me in my trailer on site in the woods of Vt as long as the sun is shining and you are kind of facing a southerly direction so you get as much sun as possible. I do not know what to expect if you are on the road and traveling.

Yes, works great. I actually started mine up through the downspout to get to the roof.

The trees is not a problem. On flat, valley's, 3-4 miles. Mountains affect most. One big or two smal max, but it is in the hollow of the mountains that is the most difficult.

Works very good. We have a lawn and landscape business. We bought 30 of these last summer and used them on a hill. Worked great

Yes and very portable, though an uneven surface like a rock, may require a flashlight beam to even out lighting the peaks and valleys. Comes with a perfect case to keep clean. Also the image screen attached is adequate for out in the field, however true pleasure is when you plug into your fully capable computer system for the full screen look see. Take care.

I used this hose with a 50gal barrels that was on a slope of about 1ft drop every 6ft and it worked pretty good. I would say any less slope and I might not have been satisfied.

I used it on a St. Augustine yard where I needed to clear an area about 4 ft by 15 ft to plant shrubs. It worked well. One word of advice is that it seems to work much better when you go backwards. I had no problem controlling the depth going backwards. Forward seems to skip a lot. I did have to stop once and untangle some of the grass that wrapped around the tiller but I needed a break anyway so it wasn't much of a problem.

Might not be good if lots of hills. A total blast on flat and slight incline surfaces.
