Directv and Dish have made satellite TV work and their dishes have gotten larger over the years....

I’ve had directv for years.....I would put a Starlink dish up in a minute if it works as advertised...

What mounting of a roof dish?

These satellites are in low earth orbit, moving fairly quickly across the sky.

A parabolic dish would have to be extremely sophisticated to constantly track them.

The ground terminal for the Starlink system is said to be the size of a pizza box.

No external antenna was mentioned.
