    HR24 screen freezes

    Fence distance

    I have 2 Dishes on for the 61.5 and the other for 119, 110. The 61.5 dish sits on a pole 2 ft high and the main dish on a 3 ft pole. If I put up a 6 ft fence to enclose my backyard how far from the dishes does it need to be to insure I won't be blocking my signals.
