How tall can DirecTV installers make a pole mount for the dish?

Question

Can it be tall enough to clear the trees? 6 to 8 feet tall?

Answer 1

I would cut down the tree and have firewood.  Or like the comcast comerical where the guy cuts a whole through the tree.  That makes me laugh.

Answer 2

It all depends on how much you want to spend on mounting it. A pole by itself can only go a few feet up. A pole with guy wires can go higher, 8-10 feet. Any higher than that and you would need a tower.
