Suggest you try a Gibertini dish or even a Channel Master. You might find that a higher quality dish of a slightly smaller size will give better results than a slightly larger cheaper, poorer quality dish. Don't bother with a Tursat dish as they are very poor quality. Some people are expressing interest in the Hollstar dishes but shipping seems to be very expensive from Poland !

The size you need is driven by your location, where are you approx ?
