[QUOTE="Simba27, post: 80136, member: 182734"] :D First time I put my analogue dish up, I fixed the bracket to the chimney with both bolts going into a single brick. The chimney was actually taking the weight of the dish. A few weeks later after a storm, I found the dish dangling by the coax, still bolted to the brick and there was a hole in the side of the chimney. O-Ha Now I stand the pole on the ridge such that the roof takes the weight and there are three brackets to hold it vertical - wrapped around the side of the chimney and screwed into different bricks. (I repaired the chimney but the bricks are pretty rotten). [/QUOTE]
