1420 x 1300mm

Width is the main factor with offset dishes.

Overall diameter: 1420 x 1300mm

Reflector diameter: 1400mm x 1270mm

From the advert:

Thus its a 127 offset dish effective.

So, not worth the expense to replace a 1.1?

From another site :-

"" Question: What's the real dish size?

Answer: The dimension that matters most is the width. Manufacturers may designate their dish size as a nominal "60cm" where the width is actually, say, 57cm or they may designate it as "135cm" where that is the height and the true width is only 120cm. We try to be as honest as possible by stating the width and height dimensions for each dish so that you know what you are getting. Because of the way that the dish edge is bent, the dimension might not be accurate (I have to rely on the warehouse monkeys to measure it for me!) If you think it's significantly wrong, please contact me (Technical). In general, the dimensions are taken from the extreme outer edge so this will be slightly larger than the effective reception area of the dish but more important in terms of "will it fit in the van?" ""



Delete the blank space.

Thats up to you to decide!

sorry but ive had to remove youre links, if they were that good im sure you would be reading a lot of reports about them.

if you really dont want to go much bigger ask about see what people are getting in youre area, with 1.2 / 1.5 etc to see if its worth youre while.

is there a particular sat you want ? worst thing you can do is get a 1.5 and find out its no good anyway .

Can I ask for the reason that the links are not allowed so I can be clear about it and not repeat any breach of rules again?
