Dish install?

    Looking for a ballpark figure for a dish install. It needs to go on one of the garden walls, so not a standard setup, but as there's no need to get up on the roof it doesn't look too difficult to me.

    How much should I expect to pay?

    Fixed, though multisat set up is what I'm after.
    Probably not overly complicated to put up, what about cabling through the garden?

    I had a similar setup in Galway once. Dish was on the back garden wall so it could look over the dorm bungalow.

    Main thing is try to keep the cable run as short as possible. Ideally under 30meters. Put the cable or cables in a protective tube if running under ground. Plastic pipe etc.

    Will the dish be looking over a house or will it have a clear line of sight to the satellites you want to receive?
