What size is your dish?
I am curious how many people on this forum have BUD's (Big Ugly Dishes), and I figured while I was at it, I could see how popular the other sizes were as well.
In your posts, please tell us the size of your dish(es) and what percentage of your tv watching comes from C-band signals.

Re: What size is your dish?
Have two, modified 36" primestar dishes from channel master. Modified means, I have cut the rotors from 18" dishes from Di$hnetwork, and put them on the back, currently have 119/118,110, and 91, on two Kboxes, and two nfusions phoenixes. One dish I painted my country flag, looks cool, the other is just grey.

Re: What size is your dish?
Thank you for the responses so far. Keep them coming. None of the BUD owners have commented on whether they watch C band.

I thought about adding that as an option, but I hoped that people in your situation would select the under 2 ft option.
