1 pain in the arse neighbour has put a stop to the plan of mounting a 90cm on the rear of the house. However, if I mount the dish below fence height, he can't see it, so he can't moan. The problem here is the dish will be need to be mounted on soft uneven ground.
The best solution I can come up with is to use a fence post to mount the dish on. Not as part of a fence, but on it's own as a single post, using something like this:

Will using a fence post like that be adequate? I have my doubts whether it will be stable enough... and whether or not the wind will rip the bolts right out of the wood, perhaps a concrete post would be better? It's the only easily reversible solution I can come up with.
