  • Yes, a rusty satellite dish will still work. However, if the rust is severe enough, it may affect the signal quality. In that case, you'll need to have the rust removed and the dish repainted. Alternatively, you could replace the dish altogether.

    Yes, a rusty satellite dish will work, but it's not recommended. A rusty satellite dish can cause reception problems and may not be able to pick up signals as well as a clean dish. If your dish is severely rusted, you may need to have it cleaned or replaced.
