hi, this was posted awhile ago, but I wanted to respond in case other customers have same questions. You can purchase the equipment from a local retailer in your area. Keep in mind it is generally less expensive, with all the promotions we offer to sign up with us directly and have us provide the equipment. Although you can install yourself, there is no warranty on self installations. Our installers are specialized in finding the best alignment for signal.
