If it was solid, you could use it and a microphone to pick up sounds from
far away - like the ones they use on the sidelines at pro football games.
but being mesh - - I'm thinking a conversion to maybe a grill.

Hi,
I know nothing about electronics etc. My question is:

I have an old 12' dish that is no longer in use. Is it possible to use
that as a high gain FM antenna? I'm about 35 miles out of town, and
located in a low point so my FM reception is poor. This 12' dish is
stitting there rusting. What are the chances of removing the LNB and
getting some FM reception from it?
Any other uses for a 12' mesh dish? Astronomy? Radio Telescope?
At present I've got it pointed right at one of the neighbours houses
and it must be annoying...... :-)
Cheers
