Site Survey Guidance

One must initiate a site survey by utilising the Starlink Installation app, which features a tool to check for obstructions. This process enables users to:

  • Evaluate the sky visibility: Use the app's obstruction tool to scan the area; a clear view of the sky in Westcombe is imperative.

  • Identify potential obstacles: Trees, buildings, or other structures in Westcombe can impede the signal; the survey helps pinpoint these interferences.

Property owners in Westcombe should select an installation site with minimal obstructions vertically and around the horizon.

  • Access for maintenance: Choose a site in Westcombe that grants safe access for future checks and any necessary adjustments.

For property owners in Westcombe, confirming the feasibility for mounting the dish and ensuring a secure, unimpeded location are primary concerns. The property's characteristics in BA4 6 dictate the most advantageous setup for a reliable Starlink Installation connection.
