The installer finally came today, and the install is postponed to Thursday. Apparently due to a line of site issue, one of the only acceptable locations for the dish will be on my garage which is not attached to the house. Because of the distance that the cable run will be the installer said i would need at least one in line amplifier, possibly two. Anyway he said that they are ten bucks extra each, and if I want the line buried its an extra two dollars per foot. He did say that he will be installing two lines, one for the sat signal and one for the OTA signal, instead of using the diplexor, so I guess thats good. So does the price for the in line amp seem right? And does anybody no the position of the satellite from my location, my zip code is 12205? Whats the maximum distance for a run?
