we have had Directv, Xfinity and Dish....most recently Dish. The Dish location can depend on your installer. Once you know the direction it must point for the satellite, you can help guide the install location. We don't like to see it so, hubby spoke to installer and suggested a location right behind where our garage roof extends beyond our home roof and it's hidden very well. it's on the same side of the house as the cable access with clear sight to satellite. The installer had selected a spot that would have been partially visables as you drove by our home (and didn't require a ladder to install) but did finally install where we asked.
