I'm looking forward to my VOOM install next week and wanted to get your take whether or not installing the dish in a covered area would reduce rain fade. I have a covered balcony that faces south so I have the option of hanging the dish on the railing where it would not take up any space on my porch but would be exposed and would get rained on and the second option is to set up a mounting pole on the porch itself that would enable me to have the dish mounted under the porch roof.
Most of my neighbors have implemented the first option but my porch is in such a way that I can try option 2 and still have dish pointing in the right direction.
Would this help at all? The only difference here would be that with option 2 the dish and LNB would not get wet at all if it rained. I imagine it would help considering that water rushing down across the face of the dish and LNB possibly contributes to rain fade. I'm totally ne to this so please let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance
