Just curious...Have you confirmed that both Dish Network or Direct TV do not work where you are at?? Both use a different angle to access satellites. If I remember correctly I believe Dish Networks satellite is almost due south / slightly south-east and Direct TV is south-west which may work better for you.

A good installer will find a way to get a signal. It only takes a small hole through the tress to get access. I had a portable dish in my RV that I used for years in areas I never thought would work but always did.

Good Luck!
