As a satellite dish installer, your job is to install and configure satellite dishes in a way that ensures they get a strong signal. Other aspects of this job include providing repair service as requested, helping customers select equipment, and determining whether or not you need to call an electrical technician before installing the hardware. Satellite dish installers frequently provide customer service to clients, select the best location to install a dish, select the tools needed for installation, run cables between homes and dishes, and maintain records of completed work. Some installers work for major television companies, while others work for independent satellite dish sellers and may do this work as part of another job.
