I had an extra cable run from the low voltage box to my future office during construction, dedicated to cable Internet. DirecTV used the other cables installed. Didn't get any extra charge for pole mount, installer just asked me where I wanted the satellite dish. After having the satellite receiver high on our two story house in MD to clear the trees which made upgrades hard, I wanted the pole mount. Interesting was that up in MD we had 5 LNB's here only one. Just like the original DirecTv before local channels were added. Got DirecTv for SciFi channel.
