Judging by the picture, I'm going to hazard a guess at 5' to 6' on the diameter.

Well genius, that antenna doesn't "send" anything. Which is why I asked him to be more specific. BTW, the antenna is 5' in diameter. It's not a "dish".

The transmitter is another huge antenna and from what I know (since I don't work for the company I climb for) it is the only antenna used to broadcast signal throughout the Palm Beach County School District. Some schools are 30+ miles away from the transmitter.
