You need high directivity to "turn a blind eye" to the multiple
reflections.

Indeed. I used to do MATV systems in Honolulu.
There, the TV transmitters are right in the middle of town.
One is about a block from a 25 story building, and of course a bunch of
others, and you're trying to get a good signal in the concrete jungle of
Waikiki..

We used "deep fringe" yagis, and large attenuators (20-30dB) then amplifiers
to drive the feeders.
