Hi people, i'm looking at getting a bigger dish to receive showtime in the uk. I currently get all the vertical transponders with my 1.1m dish. I beleive that a 1.5m dish should get me the horizontal ones too and my question is whats the difference between an offset dish and prime focus dish?? Is one more curved than the other? If not then can i just change a prime focus one and convert it to a offset dish, thanks again.

The prime focus dish id better and use fuji lnb 0.3db with the appropriate skew u will get the horizontal stations. Also check the beam coverage in your location from lyngsat or flysat to ascertian your beam coverage
