Choosing A Mounting Surface
Once you have identified the site (or sites) for mounting the
dish, you need to choose a mounting method. The method for
mounting the dish depends on where you want to mount the
dish and the type of mounting surface. You can install the dish
on several surfaces:
• Wall Studs or Solid Wood This is the simplest mounting
method. However, if you choose to mount the dish on a deck
railing, pick a site that will not be used for a handrail.
• Lap Siding (You may need to install spacers underneath the
dish mounting foot to keep the foot level.)
• Brick or Poured Concrete
• Hollow Brick or Cinder Block Wall
Keep in mind—you may need to brush snow or ice off the dish.
The dish should not be mounted in a dangerous or inaccessible
place.
