using glancing, paraboioids and hyperboioids, not quite the same as a 
dish.  but my point was to counter the over generalization that EM 
frequency being the same.  Still waiting on the size of the 60 HZ dish 
for 20 dB gain...

that was great you studied w Kraus, his book(s) are very clear on the 
complex relationships in antenna design

yes, I bought about 10 of them on ebay, cheap, a group was selling off 
all the stuff this depot level tech accumulated into a wherehouse, they 
did not know it was an antenna, did not take off the cover.  They had 
about 40 of them.

I also got the receiver box for one, not too hard to reverse engineer 
it, but if I got it working, what would i do with it, so....  nada.
THe box is a lot of discrete logic on about 6 large boards, not enough 
support for a mil aircraft imho. (MTBF killer), if you look at the F111 
nose electronics, no wonder lot of large boards, discrete electronics, 
before the implementation of  uP I guess.  or nuclear hard.

I still have 2, one is a wall clock, the other is in garage "ageing" 
with all the other stuff.

the dish is about 8" across.
The AN/APQ-171 is a very large system, low MTBF, boat anker
