I had it on the roof on the old DISH satellite stand , but after they had their 18 year old roof redone, they don't want anything on the roof again. So the only other option is the attic. Till then they have You tube TV for locals. I offered to have it installed on the eave on a pole but they said no. Their loss if the attic doesn't work.why in the attic why not outside where you would get a better signal???
