Also great advice.

And do an RFI survey -- look for local sources of RF noise. How close are
neighbors? Most modern homes have several dozen noise sources in the form of
battery chargers, digital electronics, and switch mode power supplies built
into equipment. Any solar systems nearby? Some are quite noisy, others are
not.

What's the terrain like?  Try running HFTA on it.
