Can anyone advise what the current views are on mesh vs solid dishes, with Digitalb in mind in particular?

Ready for my first setup & interested in one of the complete system sports packages on orbitalsat.co.uk, but not keen on the solid grey dishes. Would prefer a black dish, preferablly mesh for the slightly more discreet look.

If it is better to go with a solid dish, what's currently the best on the market at 90cm in black?

Thanks in advance.

Not allot in difference between mesh and solid at these sizes.

Try the 90cm raven/Gemini, very good performer 8) Its solid,but its black

You could even motorise or add extra lnb`s for more choice.

1metre triax td110 or gibertini dish would get you them with lnb such as smart titanium or sharp

The Triax dishes come in a very dark grey colour too if you can find one.
