Default The dish problem

Hey OM:

Yes how is it? Bigger is better.
I mean you are using the same source for both antennas but how does
the larger one have all that extra power, being emitted and where does
all that extra power come from?

So instead of using that 400 watt microwave oven I just get me a 30
foot dish and a 20 milliwatt emitter and save all that money I would
have wasted using the microwave oven, cooking my turkey.

It comes from "focusing" the existing energy. No new energy is created.

Yes, you *could* do that with a turkey. Just like you *could* cook it
with a magnifying glass out in the sun.
