I know it might sound obvious but is there somewhere else you can install your dish? I recently installed for someone with great difficulty finding the best place to install because of a vast amount of tall trees situated nearby making only a limited amount of satellites reasonably receivable. Hard to tell from your picture but can you estimate the distance between your dish and those trees?
