It shouldn't be any problem for the dish then. I have the 5BTV, with the 17 
meter add on and you definitely need some radials, the more the better but 
my first one made a huge receive difference. It's a compromise, like most 
antennas but I'm very happy with it. 75 meters is difficult but doable, the 
other bands are good. I can't complain about it.
