For the purpose of this chapter, the following definition shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning.
SATELLITE-RECEIVING ANTENNA. An accessory structure whose purpose is to receive communication or other signals from orbiting satellites and other extraterrestrial sources and which consists of three main components: the antenna itself (often called a “dish”); a low-noise amplifier (LNA); and a receiver. The antenna and the LNA are located outdoors and are connected by a coaxial cable to the receiver, which is placed indoors. The height of the antenna shall be measured vertically from the highest point of the signal-receiving apparatus when positioned for operation to the bottom of the base which supports the antenna.
