[QUOTE="bignick, post: 117144, member: 190163"] [color=black][font=Verdana]I know the quoted statement SHOULD be right, but frankly out here in [/font][/color][color=black][font=Verdana]Cyprus[/font][/color][color=black][font=Verdana] it doesn't seem to be! Offset dishes have a finite size where they stop being effective of about 2.8m but I think after 1.8m a prime focus is the better option. They are less hassle to set up and more robust in use. The loss of the area caused by the shadow of the LNB is also made up by the fact that Prime focus dishes allow the use of C120 LNBs and feed horns better than Offsets. With a bit of luck that put the cat amongst the pigeons ;) Cheers Nick[/font][/color] [/QUOTE]
