With Geo Maps so readily avaiable, seems they should be able to tell you Yes or No without a signed and paid contract.
Well, SteveA, unfortunately they can't tell if you have a clear shot through trees or other obstructions by looking at a map or even Google-Earth view. You really have to go on site and view sightlines in the direction and elevation for the satellites.
