For what its worth, I live next to a small mountain (or a big hill,
depending on your reference points) that is about 15 degrees high to the
west. This blocks my path to the south Pacific. I can work VK/ZL, but
they are much lower than stations in other directions. I sometimes miss
connecting with DXpeditions in that part of the world, but I sometimes make
it. Do not view the elevation blockage as an absolute barrier. At the
one-degree level, I would think it could almost be ignored.
