How important is the size of the satellite dish?

Does the size of the satellite dish matter and if so why?

  • Answer:

    The dish size will determine how much signal you have available for the LNB, the SENSITIVITY of the LNB will determine how much of that signal can be used. So a large dish and a low gain LNB will only give you the same as a small dish with a High Gain LNB - BUT!! the signal to noise ratio (s/n) will be lower as the High Gain LNB will be amplifying more. Best = Large Dish AND High Gain LNB Oh and make that trackable so you can use other satellites too

You have no choice. Dish and Divectv use different size dishes but their signals may be different. Dish makes a strange shaped one that is able to pick up two satellites at the same time.
