Just a generic name for metal dishes, pots and pans etc., so I suppose a satellite dish may come under that monicker.

Ingenuity at it's best, 2 upside-down dishes in that pic (and I too count 7 dishes, maybe a few more in the background, but I guess it's the foreground we're to focus on... ), I really should try that for myself...

I make it 7 as well - 5 at the back and the 2 prime focus on the roof. I take it that its never very windy there - those PF's are not anchored down very well.

Looking again at the pic, I see what you mean, it looks like they're held down with paving slabs or something similar, not exactly very heavy ones either...
