Grade Differentials
When grade differences are small, a single unit on the high side may work,
provided all lanes are within range.
Figure 2-15: Small Grade Differentials
When the grade differential is large enough to put a part of the lower level in a

Figure 2-16: Large Grade Differential
Trees
Trees and bushes in the path of the microwave beam (in the setback or in

vegetation maintained in the path of the beam.
