Yes, you will need to pay an average of around $185 to install your satellite dish and other equipment when signing up for satellite TV service. When you contact a satellite TV company in your area, the representative will discuss everything from your channel options and monthly rate to the upfront cost of the equipment. Depending on how many dishes you need, you could spend as much as $600 for the initial installation, but that’s just a one-time fee.

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.
