[AFMUG] OT: Extending Dishtv over Fiber (Private property)

[Nate Burke]

I've run into a situation where I need to install a TV dish about 700' 
away from where the TV will go because of heavy tree coverage. There is 
power and indoor space at the dish location, and there is already fiber 
run back to the house with multiple spare strands. 'People' I've talked 
to, say this is too far for a coax run. Searching online, it looks like 
there are some fiber options.   Dish network branded or a company called 
'Dawnco', but the equipment is about the same price in the $6000+ range 
for a 4lnb setup.  Anyone come across a cheaper way to do it?  80 year 
old-Non-technical users, so need to maintain the DISH STB, no fancy 
streaming solutions.  The dish today is about 250' away from the house 
on coax, and it will drop out in the slightest rain because of the 
signal loss over the coax.
