It's official, most of us on the forum are small dish men or mini dish men.
Elite Antennas who make the Carlsberg range of satellite dishes have classified all dishes of 2.4m or less as small. One of their latest products is the Type 201 dual axis polar mount for small antennas described as "for use with antennas up to 2.4m in diameter". A link to the document is pasted below.
Motorised satcom antennas and antenna positioners for tracking, standby, failover and inclined orbit satellites - Elite Antennas
Accordingly, I have adjusted the bandings in the dish man classification table (listed below)
Dish Man Classifications (IMHO)
3.5 metre or larger - Ultimate Dish Man
2.5 metre to 3.4 metre - Big Dish Man
1.6 metre to 2.4 metre - Small Dish Man
1.1 metre to 1.5 metre - Mini Dish Man
0.75 metre to 1.0 metre - Micro Dish Man
Less than 0.75 metre -- Nano Dish Man
