I might have to build a ground mount to install my dish that I plan to buy and I was wondering if you would be able to help me. I live in a council flat, however, it's not a high-rise, it's more like a standard house, we have the top floor, our neighbours have the ground floor. We have seperate entrances and our own gardens. I have had to write to the council, as part of the tennancy agreement to see if they will let me put the dish on the side of the house. It will be unsighted from the front. Anyway, to cut to the chase, if they say I can't install it, I will build a ground mount in the garden and cover it up with a plastic sheet, so it just looks I'm storing garden equipment.
There's a few issues really. I've no idea how to build a ground mount, I have no experience with concrete or anything, so any advice on how to build one and the equipment needed would be appreciated. The other issue is that next door have an 8 foot fence, my dish will sat about 10-12 feet from the fence. According to my calculations, the elevation will have to be 27.35 degrees and I was wondering if the fence would obscure the line to the satellite or not? Any help would be appreciated, please. Thanks for taking your time to read this.
