The installer uses a compass. If you don't have a line of sight he will tell you. Due to the southern location, the sattellite position is relatively high in the sky, meaning the dish can be low and still see over your neighbor's house. Mine is mounted a foot off the ground behind my AC. It points right over the next door neighbor's house, no problem.
