[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 687, member: 175144"] [updated:LAST EDITED ON 04-Jul-02 AT 00:16 AM (GMT)]My call I believe The larger a dish, the narrower the beamwidth of the receiving (or transmitting) signal. If the dish is larger in one dimension, the received signal is also narrower in this plane With satellites as close together as .2 degree or so (Arabsat and Astra 2 for example) it makes sense to have a dish that is able to distinguish the slight differences in orbital slot in the best way it can, which is why most smaller dishes now are built fatter than taller Its a bitch however to design a decent feedhorn for one though [/QUOTE]
