[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 801696, member: 325666"] The plastic cup cover wouldn't be so critical on a PF dish as the lnb would be angled downward toward the dish centre ..but very important if the lnb is mounted on an offset dish ..where the lnb is angled upward thus leaning back. In the latter case it would prevent rainwater ingress. Whereas you could lose the cover on a PF as it would naturally drain due to gravity. In both case however it would prevent spiders making a home in you lnb ...and indeed birds ..magpies etc from feeding the lnb throat with food and treasure. Believe me ..it does happen ..I've found allsorts in open lnb throats over the years. :) Losses are minimal if suitable plastics are used...afterall ..a plastic cover is fitted over offset lnbs as standard rgds VS [/QUOTE]
