Satellite Dish Covers: One that looks like a window mount air condtioner ?
Can anyone help?
Answer:
If you live in the US check the following link to understand your rights. Apartment facilities are not allowed to have any statement in a lease that overrides these rules. If he has a lease and they included this wording either threaten a lawyer or the language makes the lease void and he can get out of it. Most places have a hidden exclusivity contract with the cable companies for monetary gain. Stand up for your right to fair access.
I do not know about such a cover. I have installed systems inside the room of a south facing window (here it must point to the south). The glass will not stop the satellite signal. As with any satellite installation, there will need to be a clear shot to the south (no trees, and such). Being inside the house should cause no reception trouble, if the signal is not obstructed by curtains, and trees. Does he have a balcony? If so you could go with a tripod temporary mount, out on the balcony. As long as the dish is not actually mounted to the building, there probably is not a problem.
