Fortunately “my” dishes are in a less obtrusive place. Radio transmissions are funny in that if there is a clear path and the curvature of the earth doesn’t interfere a weak signal can go a very long way.

I just haven’t decided whether I can legally put my antenna on the tube the dish is mounted on. I used to live in a university town and long ago knew a family there for some sort of educational transfer for him, great folks from the west coast of Australia.
