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 Lotts is imperative.

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

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

Property Considerations

Property suitability in Lotts hinges on several factors:

  • Installation surface: Install on a stable and flat surface or a permanent fixture (e.g., roof, pole, or wall) in Lotts to maintain unobstructed lines of sight.

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

For property owners in Lotts, confirming the feasibility for mounting the dish and ensuring a secure, unimpeded location are primary concerns. The property's characteristics in KW14 7 dictate the most advantageous setup for a reliable Starlink Installation connection.
