A SuperDISH a 36" x 20" oval satellite dish used by Dish Networks.

A SuperDISH is able to receive a signal from three satellite locations.

The SuperDISH replaced the earlier Dish 500, which was only able to receive a signal from two satellite locations.

The SuperDISH comes is available in two models:

* The 105 SuperDISH is pointed to receive signals from Dish Network satellites at 105, 110, and 119 degrees West.
* The 121 SuperDISH is pointed to receive signals from Dish Network satellites at 110, 119, and 121 degrees West.

The SuperDISH is an alternative to the Dish 1000.

The SuperDISH was deployed by DISH Network in November 2003 as a means to provide more channels for subscribing customers. Its elliptical reflector is 36" x 20" - more than 50% larger than the round 20" DISH 500. The SuperDISH receives signals from three orbiting satellites, as opposed to two signals with a DISH 500. The three satellites are at 110°W, 119°W, and either 105°W or 121°W depending on customer requirements. The 105-degree orbital slot provides local channels via Ku-band from SES Americom's AMC-15 satellite. The other, 121-degree orbital slot provides local channels and international packages via Ku-band from EchoStar 9, which is also known as Galaxy 23/EchoStar 9 due to a joint partnership with Intelsat
