Give me a south view anywhere in the lower 48, and I'll get you a DirecTV signal that no NIMBY HOA will ever discover.....
Yeah our dish is mounted to a slab near the pool equipment and concealed by hedges. No one would ever know it’s there. Plus, I seem to remember that HOAs can no longer prevent you from getting satellite and having a dish that meets certain requirements anyway (by FCC rule).
