Anyone have a pic of the new AT9 dish mounted on their roof? I need to turn in a request for my HOA (already have the oval w/3LNB's) but need to be prepaired for the upgrade sometime by the end of the year.
HOA's are sometimes a pain in the arse (got written up for my water hose left one day laying across my driveway)...

My 5LNB dish is mounted on the gable of the house, about 18 feet off of the ground. I had anticipated that it would be mounted in the same place as my old round dish, but the installer couldn't get a line of sight for all sats. So he had to move it over about 10 feet. He actually did a nice install, considering it was cold and dark outside. He didn't show up for the install until about 6:30, and worked till almost 11:00 PM getting it set up.
Prime star dish modified with dtv dual lnb on pole. Also had 2 direcway dishes on pole's "one was working when I had direcway and the other is a test I used with modems and radio arms and such."

The people across the street are trying to get a HOA in here (a new sub with 39 houses). He is the developer doing the next phase. I went to these meetings thinking I would be the only dissenter, being one of the youngest (31) homeowners. They finally came to my house with their petition, like it was no big deal. They had 24 sigs. They did not get mine. They never will. This is America, a country I served in the military for, and I refuse to give up any more of my constitutional rights, especially after the hissy fit the old bastards threw when my down the street neighbor put up a basketball goal for her kids.
Fortunately, I got in before they even had covenants here. We were shown a copy of the planned ones (to be copied from another developement), but we never signed anything. The covenants restrict fencing to the wood privacy types. Problem is, we are in the delta region on the mississippi, meaning it is flat and windy, which wrecks those fences. We will install a tasteful wrought iron or aluminum fence someday. I hold out hope that my neighbors will get a fence of their own, to cut down on my cost. :devil:
My dish is eave mounted on the corner of the eave where the roof transitions from east/west over the garage/bonus room to North/south over the main part of the house. I chose my location for ease of grounding.
