Patent ID: 7027006

Claim:
A satellite dish antenna and mount for attaching a satellite dish to a pole, comprising a. a satellite dish for focusing radio waves from a satellite to a focal point on a low noise block filter (LNBF) attached to the satellite dish by a feedhorn; b. a vertical member, having a first side and a second side, to be held against the pole on the second side in a parallel orientation with the pole; c. a plurality of cross members, having a first end and a second end, attached perpendicularly to the first side of the vertical member; d. a plurality of chains that have a first chain end and a second chain end, wherein the first chain end of a chain is attached to the first end of a cross member and the second chain end of the chain is attached to the second end of the cross member, and wherein the chain is wrapped around the pole so that the pole is between the chain and the vertical member to hold the vertical member against the pole by friction; and, e. a dish mounting mate attached to the first side of the vertical member, wherein the dish mounting member accepts a footing of a satellite dish mast that is attached to the satellite dish.
