There are alot of people living in apartment using the cement in a plastic bucket setup. it the only way most apartments will alow renters to have a sat dish. I nolonger have sat service but my dish is still up except the receiver head which I sent back. But what is left is all metal with a nice metal fitting that the sat dish head hooked up to which I could use as a bracket to attach a antenna to.troy wrote:A WOOD POST IN A BUCKET OF CEMENT??
