Can you run a pole from your deck so a dish can point over the roof? What about off to the side?

Nope. The dish has to be inside my leasehold area as Red Dog states. I can't even have it attached to the balcony. That's total ******** in my eyes. As long as it is not permanently doing any damage to the structure, you should be able to do that. Oh well, I'll have to wait at leas another year before I can get DirecTv.

Nope... Here in Central Texas, mine still points SW. I'll check the settings for my zip code when I get home...

Edited to add: Looks like it's just south of me.
