Last April I purchased D*. When the installer arrived, I was told that I would not receive a good enough signal because I did not have an unobstructed SW view facing 210 - 240 degrees. I had a second installer tell me the same thing a week later.

Last November my next door neighbor had D* installed. It looks to me that his dish is pointing almost straight south, not the direction I was told mine would have to face. Our houses are right on top of each other and it looks like I should not have a problem since my dish could be mounted on my roof no more than 25 feet from where his dish is mounted on his roof.

Has something changed concerning the dish directional placement?
 
I'd recomend calling a local retailer that sells directv (not big box, but local working man type).

They may be more willing to "work' to find a window than what the previous tech was. Unfortunately, sometimes they don't "want' to find a window for the signal.
