    success! With the slimline! Thanks a lot everyone! I am so excited to get my KUBand offset disk soon. If I think this one is doing a good job even with the rain and wind, I imagine the dedicated fta dish will be great!

    so I decided to buy a made-for-FTA disk and it is on the way. It is a 33" and I hope it works for learning.
