Offsite Antenna Installation
I had gotten some advice here earlier re how to set up my antenna. Due to topography and tree height, it's basically impossible to set up the antenna on or near my house unless I build a 150' tower which is not happening. The satellite internet guy had the same problem and is basically going to mount the dish on top of a hill on my property and run the cable down to my house. I figured I could do the same thing and mount the antenna in a tree on top of the hill. It could end up being several hundred feet of coax run. My questions are:
1. Is there a proper way to have coax cross a chasm from the top of the hill to the second story so I don't have to run additional length down the hill and up the side of the house?
2. Where would a drop amplifier fit into the set up due to the length of the cable run?
3. Is it feasible to have a rotor, and run the wiring that far, or should i just have two seperate antennas pointed in their respective directions and call it good?
Any other advice or information is appreciated.
