As I understand the issues, the best feed is one that -- for a given focal
length -- will "light" the dish with as spherical a wave as possible, that
has a broad enough dispersion angle to fully "paint" the dish without picking
up off-the-edge noise.

I've looked at all types of feeds, from cantennas to bi-quads to patch to
dual-dipole. All have their pros and cons.

I'd like to hear from anyone who has done this before about what feed they
chose and why.

Thanks,
Biquad , simple , safe ,cheap and you can build it with a minimm of tools.
