I am inclined to think that the problem is Not what is on the roof of the building but the actual structure of the building. Thick walls and metal reinforced structures will cause interference with radio signals.

Question Author
but surely not standing next to a large window Hans ?
I am far far from being really knowledgeable on the subject but I do know that radio waves can be very directional and a foot either way from 'direct line of vision'', from transmitter, can make a difference between receiving or Not receiving a signal. One can move in front of a window to a position whereby a corner of something, such as another building, can come in the pathway of a signal. Furthermore, one might move to a position whereby electrical cables embedded in a wall can cause an interference.
