Can "Dish Network" dish be used for a mesh antenna?  I have about 6 laying around the shop.

Sure thing!


Do a google search for biquad dish feed and you should find Trevor Marshall's page with designs.

I had a Dish Network installer with many years with the company tell me that the vertical oval works better than the horizontal ovall. I have no way to know. I do no that the vertical ovals do not come around verry often. You might keep an eye out for the other enternet companies dishes to see what they are using. Digits??

Michael KF7MBK has built a dish that works quite well.
