Augusta, Maine Weather

Are you one of those people with a satellite dish who experience “partial signal loss” when the trees leaf out every spring?  Yep, you put up with it all summer until the fall when the trees go bare again. Put that together with what a certified tree surgeon will charge you to come out and “try to get the branches that are blocking the signal” and you can understand frustration and the expense of “trying to cut the right tree branch.” Here are two solutions for you, and I do not recommend either of them.  Well, unless you’re courageous and don’t mind taking a chance, and have good medical coverage.
