Roger,

Does the one that goes through trees change in SWR from day to day?

It doesn't appear to, but as I always have the tuner in line and do a
lot of band switching, I'd probably never notice. I can say that when
switching from one of the other bands the tuner settings can be set
very close by a chart. Nor do I remember having to retune with
changes in the weather.

One other thing to remember is that those trees are *wet* whether it's
raining or not as far as the antenna is concerned.
