So I'm tired of paying Comcast's outlandish charges every month. I'm considering switching to Dish Network for the savings but I don't want the eye sore of a dish on my roof/porch/eve/balcony/ or deck like I have seen that some people have.
I am considering putting a galvanized pipe behind my shed (120 feet away) to mount the dish too. Out of sight, out of mind.
I'm wondering what type of coax to install from the house MPOE to the shed. Any ideas?

I would mount your pole and let the dish network guys run the cable and do the install . you might bury some pipe out to the shed to make it easier for them

I agree.

Any Dish Network installation I've seen, they used their own wire and ran it themselves. It was two coax's in a siamese cable.

A 1-inch PVC conduit buried a foot down is a good idea.
