DirecTV Systems

Launched in 1994, DIRECTV was the first entertainment service in the U.S. to deliver all digital-quality, multi-channel TV programming to an 18-inch satellite dish.

Mount DirecTV dish on antenna tower (not mast)

Hi all,
I had a DirecTV install scheduled for today and when I asked the Tech about mounting the mini-dish to the OTA antenna tower (3 - 1" pole arranged in triangle & mounted in concrete and fastened to SW roof eave), he indicated that he was not familiar with that type of mounting.
He suggested for my house/location either a direct roof mount OR, a 5ft. 1 3/4" pipe set in concrete in the yard.
I'm wanting to find out if anyone else is familiar with mounting the mini-dish to the antenna tower that I had recently installed on the West end of the house. Very secure and clear (no trees) open southern-sky view.

He also said he did not know of any brackets for this type of dish mounting.

Your comments and replies appreciated.

Cool antenna mounting

If the direct Tv installer is a good one he will figure something out for sure.
Be aware that if there is a good place on the south side of your house that is where he is going to install it, no matter what.
