If you wish to have everything "the best" then you better get best dish :-rofl2 not Famaval. Just kidding.
Welcome your first post! If you have a chance post some pictures of your installation.

Since you have the reflector dimension, if you measure the depth of the dish you can work out the 'best' focal distance.

The manufacturer has specified their reflector diameter is 2290 mm, do you have a different design ?

If there is no hole in the centre of the reflector then it is a pressed design, Famaval from memory is spun aluminium, unless they have changed their manufacturing procedure at some point.

Or is it the other way round ?
