I'm a little confused (nothing unusual there), the thread CH linked to does indeed show your warped dish and dates back to September 2011. Have you moved since then and the dish was further damaged in the move or is this still the damage from when the photos were taken? I got the impression from the previous thread that some wrinkles had been smoothed out...

Hi,
As mentioned above, the c120 is on the prime focus dish. I'll update my details in a sec
Sorry about that.
The warped dish does indeed date way back and I sorted it a little back then. Since that time we've move twice and the dish was stood on the ground for a few months whilst I waited for the weather and the permission to go set it up. It had warped so badly that we were completely unable to get a signal on Amos which prompted my new thread, not realising that the dish had warped again.
