[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 992625, member: 176704"] Lazarus Another reason for the mini-dish being wider than tall is probably that most of the signal is actually collected from the lower section of the dish, and the upper section does not actually collect that much, as well as the smaller dish being much less visually obtrusive (and cheaper!) than the traditional taller-than-wider elliptical dish - unless, that is, you have multiple "mini-dishes" on the face of a block of apartments/flats or terraced houses (as is very common around here) because that's totally "in your face" when you are there. OTOH, depending on where you are in W.Yorkshire, it may be different there o_O? Edited: your most recent post kinda "supports" the last past of what I wrote above - but, as I said above, that sometimes does not work out in practice! [/QUOTE]
