I'm not questioning his work ot himself, but the result is odd, IMHO.

It is interesting and explains why Echostar 7 is popular south of the border.

It's a second generation antenna. 1990's design with lots of "splash". Every newer antenna design iteration has tightened up the beams.

There will be lots of howling in Mexico, Carribean and northern South American when Echostar 14 takes over duties at 119W.
