[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 942801, member: 178786"] Scopus, Thank you for the feedback The CM probably has the edge over the Precision in terms of signal level due to the offset focus design where the CM feed arms and LNB holder do not block the signal path to the face of the dish. Personally, I would still choose the Precision due to the aesthetics of appearance and much lighter weight. It's just me, I prefer the look of a prime focus dish to an offset focus dish and I also like how light and easy the larger Precision dishes are for handling. If the signal level was critical I would simply get a larger prime focus dish to meet my needs. Having said that, the CM 2.4m dish is a very good dish. The last one I saw go on eBay recently was a 2 piece unit and it went for a bargain price of £399. That included a high quality dual axis tracking mount with actuators, amazing value for whoever bought it. [/QUOTE]
