A common choice is to install a wood 4x4 in the ground, often without concrete, and attaching a J-mast to the wood post. Aside from looking ugly, a wood post can twist as the wood seasons over time. Wood may warp season to season as the climate changes. Mounting a dish to a wood post in the ground may require an adjustment of the dish to compensate for the movement of the wood. Conduit / Tubing The most common material used for ground mast installations [...]

A splitter divides a satellite singal in two. Thinkstock/Comstock/Getty Images A splitter in the cable from a satellite dish divides the signal into two parts to connect to two receivers.

The first step in evaluating your current dish condition is to see if the dish reflector is bent or sagging. One method is to stretch two pieces of string, separated by 90 degree angles, across the diameter of the dish. Make sure the strings are tight and intersect near the center of the dish. If the dish is not bent the strings should touch at the intersection point. Another method is to site across the diameter of the dish with your naked eye. Look [...]

Some folk wisdom tells us that a cheap way to keep snow off your dish is to spray it thoroughly with a garden hose. In fact, this does sometimes work. Water from the hose is warmer than the outside temperature, so even if the water feels cold to the touch, it will melt snow falling on the dish. So, is this a good way to make sure that you can enjoy uninterrupted viewing in the winter months? A satellite dish is designed to live outside in the weather [...]

We need a lightweight, rugged and sturdy stand that we can easily transport and store. And let s not forget that we need to make sure it is level, find North and point the dish to the right azimuth. We found a way to make this process [...]
