Re: How tall should outdoor antenna be?

there is NO advatage to putting a satellite dish higher, it has no
effect on reception unless you dont have line of site at a lower
elevation.

my dish lives lag bolted to my deck, which makes service and snow
removal very easy.

you willn find it near impossible to aim a satellite dish on a pole
and the wind turns the dish into a wing causing movement which will
effect reception.

satellite tv dishes look at a fixed satellite at about 22,300 miles, a
few feet means nothing.

if your looking at satellite tv get a DVR digital video recorder it
will change how you look at tv forever
