I need help looking for a software for sketching 2D Dish Network Installation diagram.

kicad is a good one. A bit of a learning curve. Cad models are downloadable from Mouser and Newark, although libraries are out there if you search. Drawing simple circuit diagrams is pretty simple. From design to production. And it's free!

There are specific wiring-diagramming programs, but they're for complex harnesses. A DiSH installation would be a very simple draw-up.

I use Adobe Illustrator. I've handmade most of the pieces I use, although occasionally like the DPH42 I'm able to lift them from owners' manuals or what have you.

We had to use Visio where I work, but then the network diagrams we were documenting were pretty complex. The ability to move a node and not have to then adjust the endpoints of the interconnects was a time-saver.

For the home, though, I bought the Affinity suite of Photo and Designer for my Mac, but it has been acquired by Canva and is available as a "Freemium" version that includes all the original separate Apps.
