How much change in signal is there?

Well it may stop the 5G from getting in from off the side of the LNB, but what about the 5G stuff reflecting off the main dish into the LNB??? The only way I know on how to fix the 5G problem is to add the 5G filter to the LNB, (or buy an LNB with the filter built in) this may be a bit more costly but it works.

That was my take about the reflector, and this was the answer:
"This works because your dish is not pointed at the 5g signal for most satellites, the 5g signal most of the time is not reflected by the satellite dish but infact hits the feed horn at an angle from one side or the other of the dish."
I'm not very confident about this answer !!!

Who knows how many peoples dishes may point to a 5G cell tower at sometime or another, their going up all over the place, and someone could just drive by someones dish, and be on 5G at the time.

I would think something like this would work better, it can cover almost the full angle of the focal point off the sides of the dish.
