I was just curious. Do the gateways have a big satellite dish? As in one that's consirable in size?
I was searching my gateway city on a satellite view to see if I could pick it out. Lots of cell tower sites on hills, but no satellite dish.
Yeah...I'm bored. LOL.
I would assume that the actual dish size has to do with a function of freqency/bandwidth (aperture/waveguide/feedhorn) as well as relative transmit power to what we use. Would also depend upon the number of beams/outroutes handled by each dish, and if the transceivers used for each are either grouped or multiplexed.
Short answer, my guess is "yes".
