Default what are Microwave Antennas?

We in the business call them "dishes" or parabolic dishes or reflectors.
Shaped like a dish to concentrate the microwaves to an antenna placed
at the dish focal point. Those 8 or 10 foot dish antennas in people's
yards to pick up satellite TV are microwave antennas...
