lol, does it get Christmas lights when that time rolls around?
Finally got mine up at the new place:
It's on a pole the landlord put up for the former tennants who had Dish. I can't see east of Ia6 for now, but I may try out other methods in the future. The house was also wired for Dish, which made it incredibly easy to plug in after setting the motor. It's on G10r in the pic.
In the future, I'll try and remember to bring my camera to work, so I can take a pic of the dishes I get the joy of sweeping in the winter

Might as well add mine to the mix.
All four FTA LNBs coax cables run into the basement where they connect to the DiSEqC switch. If you notice, the 2x2 Star Choice multiswitch is mounted on the soffit, it use to be mounted on the mount assembly (bad design). Spent too many nights last winter out in the freezing cold on a ladder with a hairdryer when water/ice got into it! Typically, it only knocked out the English language satellite, the French language satellite NEVER went out! So with the FTA I wasn't taking any chances and put the DiSEqC switch indoors.

My Setup (links)
I already have a thread on my 7.5 ft c-band mesh with added linear and circular ku, setup see it here: http://www.satelliteguys.us/showpost.php?p=585964&postcount=1
ChannelMaster Ku Dish: http://www.satelliteguys.us/showpost.php?p=608390&postcount=1
I also have a dish 500, 18 inch dtv dish, and superdish 121. Not used much and nothing you haven't seen.
OTA Antenna: 91XG AntennasDirect - UHF ONLY (great for long range digital)
