Best satellite dish 📡

[moonbase]

I think its real price. In my country all satellite accessories is very expensive, I paid for used Gibertini 150 500 Eur. Lnb price: Inverto black ultra 25-30, Invacom 031 single 70 and feedhorn 80 Eur.

If @blejac is thinking of buying the dish and they are happy with the price it is a very good dish and will give many years of service.

For top-notch signal quality, you can't go wrong with a prime focus dish. They tend to be more precise in focusing the signal. Just make sure to get a reputable brand, and you should be good to go!

Consider that the bigger the dish is, the more precise has to be its alignment. And probably done by a professional technician

There are quite a few hobby satellite members on the forums who have the skill to align large dishes.
If a large dish is single piece there are only two angles (Az/El) to set correctly for a fixed dish and three angles (Az/El/Dec) for a motorised dish, if azimuth is considered an angle.
This is fairly easy to do with a digital inclinometer and a reasonably accurate signal measuring device.

If the dish is multi-piece, such as 6 petals or more then the petal alignment also has to be taken into account.
For a 4.5m dish or larger that is multi piece then I agree that a specialist technician with laser mapping or some similar alignment device is needed, especially once the frequencies get up into the Ka-Band range.
