Satellite Dish Maximum E-85

[ecsbox360]

hi, does anyone have one of these dishes?
Im looking into it as a replacement for my mini dish so I can pick up alot more of whats available. and wondered how other people got on with it?
I believe you can get about 20+ birds across about 50 degrees of seperation. but the dish acts like a 60cm at certain degrees from centre.

have you looked at the Wave Frontier T90 design is more efficient.

I did original spot the T90 Toroidal dish first - but was put off by the large size. Takes to the footprint (on the wall- could say wallprint?) of a std 1m dish. Which is too large for me - as the missus wont have any of it. (esp not the 2nd reflector either!)
So I was looking to scale down a little bit into the 80cm range. Hence finding the Maximum E-85 which has dimension of 75cm height by 90cm width.
A few birds need 80cm dish where I am located - so I was wondering if anyone else has managed to pickup a watchable signal from satellites needing a larger dish than they are using?
