Get matched with top satellite tv technicians in Vernon, FL

The best satellite TV service largely depends on your budget, preferences, and viewing habits. Here are some pros and cons of the most popular services:

• DISH Satellite TV: More affordable, wide variety of selections especially for families with children

• DIRECTV: Robust “Sports Pack” and bundles with internet and phone service to help you save if you need multiple services

We recommend reaching out to a few satellite TV companies in your area before deciding which is right for you.

A satellite dish should face south with a view unobstructed by trees, branches, leaves, buildings, or other structures or objects. The optimal angle offset is between 22.3 degrees and 17.3 degrees. Any more or less of an angle can disrupt or disconnect the cable signal from the satellite sources to the south. The dish should be tightly secured to the metal rod or structure so that weather doesn’t cause it to tip or tilt out of the optimal angle offset.

For customers looking for access to more channel variety and better DVR capability, satellite TV service is absolutely still worth it. When you consider that the cost of cable TV service averages $65 per month, the $70 per month you’d pay for satellite TV seems like an obvious choice, especially since the service is considered superior by most customers. Plus, satellite TV is available in far more areas than cable TV, so it’s not only worthwhile but sometimes the only option for customers in rural areas.

Most people install satellite dishes on the roof so its path is unobstructed by trees, branches or buildings. However, a spot on a garage, deck, patio, or on the ground that has nothing blocking the dish will also work. The dish must be able to withstand extreme weather conditions without falling over or tilting the dish out of the optimal angle offset.
