Sandpoint Satellite and Sound is the premier home entertainment headquarters for North Idaho residents.

Founded in 1997 as Hesstronics, Inc, at the time primarily a commercial satellite installation oriented company, Hesstronics, Inc has evolved into a full service retail store.

The owners Lenny and Nancy Hess opened the Sandpoint Satellite retail outlet across the street from their present location at 314 N. 5th Avenue in downtown Sandpoint in the fall of 2001.

Previous to this Lenny had worked in the satellite antenna installation industry since 1981 installing residential and commercial antennae across the US and internationally. Lenny and Nancy are both long time Sandpoint residents, with Lenny moving to Sandpoint with his parents in 1961 and graduating from Sandpoint High School in 1976.

Sandpoint Satellite sells and installs both Dish Network and Directv satellite TV systems. They also sell and install WildBlue High Speed Satellite Internet through Got Sky Unlimited, the number one supplier of WildBlue high-speed, wireless satellite Internet access for rural America.

As these types of sales continue to be their bread and butter, Sandpoint Satellite and Sound has expanded into offering higher end TV and audio equipment.

Sandpoint Satellite current employs 4 persons other than Lenny and Nancy. Pepe Olds in sales, and Dave Summers, Shane Timblin and Steven Olafson are our current fully certified installers.

The 6400 sq ft. facility houses the public showroom, offices and includes a 2600 sq ft warehouse. They currently have 5 fleet vehicles to help better serve their customers.

In the store you can experience High definition television at its best with a 92” front projection screen and 7.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. You can also see the current line up of satellite receivers and try out the satellite Internet products.
