[Ground-station] Checking some assumptions about dish weight

[Michelle Thompson]

This question is related to the open source tracking station project.

I've looked at a lot of dish catalogs and eBay sales.

For big dishes, for use up to 10GHz or so, would it be reasonable to
specify 100lbs (45kg) for the weight? I'm seeing a lot of dishes up to 8ft
that are less than that. We have to pick a number for the mechanical
designer.

Another breakpoint seems to be 250lbs (115kg).
