all_media-services1AMS is on site to move a customers dishy. We used a 10ft pole and existing J-arm to get the dishy away from obstructions, drastically improving his signals. Come join Kelly and Colton for this unique look at how we took care of this common issue.

I'm curious how perfectly stable the pole needs to be / I already have a tower for my current weak wifi receiver.....but it's perhaps too tall....and the top does waver in a slight wind
What size conduit did you use?
It would have been helpful if you had done before and after speed tests.
That’s what I was waiting for…
I did something similar except not as nice looking hahaha, I mounted a treated 16' 4x4 to the side of my shipping container with deck anchor brackets and used a Starlink wall mount at the top. total is about 17' high but its good enough
Hey that works too! We’ve seen some pretty inventive setups to acquire a signal 😁
Great video. Could you elaborate on the 1 3/4" od pole? What kind of pole (emt, galvanized water, etc) I'm curious about the id because of the
way it fits perfectly on the Starlink stub.
Hey Klj, it is a galvanized pole that was 1 1/2” inside diameter. We have used 1 3/4” as well, we used some sealant pads to take up the extra space between the pole and the Dishy mount. I like the 1 3/4” a bit better as it is a little bit more rigid then the 1 1/2”.
Thanks! @@AllMediaServices1
EMT 1 1/2 inch is 1 3/4 inch OD.
Link to mount
You can use cable ties to take the pressure off the cable.
I was just going to say... that anchor bolt is pressing right on the cable. Yikes!
Do you have any ideas for the Gen 1 starlink. For a roof mount
Check out this article. www.starlinkcommunityforums.com/post/where-to-install-starlinks-satellite-dish-called-dishy
Hi I live on the top floor of a condo. Would I be able to mount the dish on my balcony?
Unfortunately Starlink requires a 360 degree field of view to function at full capacity. If you were able to make an extension off of your balcony above the roofline then in theory you could make that work. I’m sure landlord approval would be the biggest hurdle though! We have installed satellite TV dishes to the roof of apartment buildings, condos, etc and ran the cabling from that point into the customers unit.

where did you got the pole? is just common conduit?
Hey Jesus, it’s a standard galvanized fencing pole. 1 3/4 inch diameter. You can pick them up at most hardware stores.
What is the specific name for those tripod arms. I cannot find them anywhere.
Hey Micheal, these arms came in a couple of kits we had. There from older satellite mounts, there a little hard to come by on there own but I have seen them on Amazon sold with the J-arm. Another solution for is the old HughesNet and Xplorernet large dishes…they have trio-pod arms that work with the smaller j-arms with minor mods(done with a pair of pliers) and work great!
Antenna wall mount brackets.
What is the round bracket on the pole called?
A ring clamp I believe.. We got the stand-off arms with the clamp from an old satellite internet system.

How you get it down in storm
Hey RecklessJunkie, it doesn’t come down at all, this is a permanent mount.
What’s the diameter or dimension of the pole?
Hey Jakob, 1.3/4 inch outside diameter…hope this helps.
Hey Jacob, 1-3/4 inch pipe.
Why not just put a new mount up on the roof for the cx? Would have beat all the mucking around with poles n holes.
For sure that would’ve been easier, but this place is a rental and they’re not allowed to mount anything on the roof.
@@AllMediaServices1 I get it i was just curious. I do the same work as you out here in Saskatchewan. Stay safe out there and keep it 💯
Why didin't you just mount it to the roof or the eve in the roof? Would be higher without all this.
He replied to that already....its a rental and they are not allowed to put anything in the roof.
2:07 Getting it straight is easy if you use a level. Eyeball is not accurate.
Horizontal is called level. Vertical items are called plumb.
And a person that makes a comment like you is called a clown, nobody cares what he calls it.
It's PLUMB not level!
Is that Jim Carrey?
I wish we could afford to get Jim in a video 😄
whoever mounted it there should be arrested lol
Haha 😆
