Really depends on two factors; 1 is the kind of three, for instance pine, etc 
will attenuate the singnal much more than non-pine.  Normally for 5ghz we would 
add quite a bit, more like 8000 to those, the second is the height, it has to 
be set to an average in your area.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Radio Mobile Land Cover Question

 

I typically set the tree density to 400%.  Any less than that and I think it's 
too optimistic.  Your trees may vary. 

        If I'm doing primarily 5 GHz and is therefore safe to assume that any 
tree is a dead signal, any reason to not just set Radio Mobile Land Cover 
values to 100% density for all forests and woodlands? 
        
        I'm also not sure on those heights either. 50' trees? Maybe, but I bet 
you they're 60' - 80' tall. What kind of trees? *shrugs* I'm not an arborist. 
I'm guessing maples and oaks.
        
        The coverage it generated was very optimistic, given that trees exist. 
I do see those areas flagged as tree areas, it must think it's winter all the 
time here.
