[amsat-bb] B'bque grille with wire mesh vs 60cm solid dish, both with patch feed, which one is better?

["Thomas K. Daniels" <tkdaniels@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi, 

I'd like some feedback from those who have covered their 2x3 B'bque dishes
with
mesh and tried a patch feed.  I am currently using a 60cm (23") dish from
Jim Miller
with a patch feed.  The improvement over the straight grille with dipole
feed was phenominal.

However, I recently have seen some postings from those who covered the
larger Myers
dishes with mesh and tried different feeds.

Last night, I readied the Myers dish with mesh and a mount for the patch
feed.  I like to 
know if others have made this comparison, before I climb up there.

Tom
