Well that depends. You'll need a clear line-of-sight to the satellites in the southern sky from that location. Installation techs generally won't install a dish on concrete walls. Perhaps a pole mount would work? You'll need to discuss your options when you schedule your installation.

Back of the house faces South South West so no issue with line of site. Pole option remains a problem because of the rocky soil, big pain in the (Edited per community guidelines) getting down 3 feet into the rock for a pole.

Since the satellite dish needs a clear view of the southern sky, unblocked by trees or buildings, the location could be a roof or balcony, or another location as long as the dish is outside. DIRECTV professional installers pick the best location to set up your satellite dish and ensure you get the most out of our service.
Check out more info here about the installation process, and let us know any questions you have.
