multiple dish installation question

[sexydadee]

is there a standard distance between dishes for installing them. Im trying to install 4 dishes, 3x 110cm, and 1x 2meter dish. I want to clump them together but i want to know the spacing distance between them to avoid interference. Thanks

So long as one dish dosen't shadow another they should be OK

shadow, as in cast by the sun shadow?

As in shadow the signal. For examble if you install one dish directly above another on a wall, the lower dish could well recieve no signal as the upper one would be in it's line of sight.

I am trying to install them on the same level on a flat level rooftop. any spacing i should watch out for with respect to horizontal?

Not really, might be an idea to leave enough space between them to work around, that will make installation and any future maintenance alot easier.
