[QUOTE="anton, post: 30791, member: 176045"] Well this 10,7 vs 10,95 has been a concern for me as well. Channel Master gives operating frequency for their dishes starting at 10,7, the same goes for e.g. the Polish dish (Laminas), on the other hand the Russian dish (Supral) also only starts at 10,95 I would very much like to hope that this had no influence on the reception ability of either Prodelin or Patriot as they seem to have good references (unlike say IRTE which as you say starts at 10,7 but I haven't heard much positive about them yet) I can understand how e.g. the depth/shallowness of a dish can have an effect on the amount of unwanted noise received but I can't quite imagine how a dish could be specifically shaped or something to work better at 10,95 rather than 10,7 I was worried to note somewhere though that the GAIN of a dish the producers give is for mid or rather upper half of KU band and is declining with lower frequency rather than the other way round. I am sure BBC knew damn good what they were doing when they were choosing their new frequency to be put on 2D, certainly bearing in mind the dish gain is not the same across the frequency range, and also giving it H polarization which is harder to receive.
