    Finding a contractor to install an antenna

    ADVERTS
    Hello Everyone,

    What's the best way to find someone to do a rooftop installation of an antenna? I have the antenna in-hand, but don't have the patience or experience to get up there safely, install it properly, and run the wire back into my house in a reasonable amount of time. (I also don't have an attic, so I'd rather not have the thing mounted somewhere in my loft.)

    I've run a google search for contractors in my area (Pittsburgh), but turned up nothing. It seems like there shouldn't be any practical difference between installing a satellite dish and an antenna. How do I find the folks that DirecTV and Dish contract? Would they be willing to help me out? Any other ideas?

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Antenna Installer

    gregfi,

    I happen to have a Link that may help you.

    I want to say this emphatically !...
    I have not used this company.
    I do not know of anyone who has.
    You will get some $0.0 results, until you contact them, and state the conditions.

    I'm not saying this is a bad company, but...
    Just take it easy, get the info, and make a close evaluation of it !
