I've never been able to blame reflections on barbed wire, but I'm sure it's possible. Trees seem to cause more problems by simply screening the signal, or sometimes by passing it through and providing a secondary transmission path.

YOU set up TV aerials.
I fly model planes. The barbed wire fence glitch is well known

Of course rusty fences have effective diodes in them. So you get
intermodulation of reflected signals as well.
