I hope it is okay to use this post for this question. I understand that it is too difficult to mount the new 5 LNB dish on the side of a building because of the weight. Also, because this new dish requires the main mounting point plus 2 stabilizing arms, you cannot mount on a pole.

I live in a townhome and cannot mount on the roof. Does anyone else know of how I can mount this dish?

I thought of building a small wooden platform to mount the dish. Does anyone know what the minimal surface dimension is I need to mount the dish that will accomodate the main mounting point and the two stabilizing arms?

Thanks in advance.
