Ghosts of TV habits gone by

I own a brick two-flat in Chicago. A previous owner, probably 10+ years ago, had satellite TV. The dish is still up on the roof, bolted to the inside of the parapet. Can I remove the dish or is there some risk I'll harm the roof/parapet in the process? Or should I involve a professional?

The roof is in great shape, thankfully. There's no sign the dish is loose or doing any damage, it just annoys me.

Bonus question: what does one do with these defunct satellite dishes?
