I get lots of 4k HD feeds on my big dish, pic is excellent, so me with a BUD I'm ready for 8k. Compression tech keeps getting better, my current 4k receiver is h265 dvb-S2X.

What are you using for a tuning receiver? I am not familiar with any tech for the big dishes after the DSR922 4DTV decades ago. And IMO that receiver was a POS.
I had a Toshiba TRX-2220 back in the 90's (arguably one of the best analog C/Ku band receivers ever). The picture quality on that was stunning. Ahhh, the days of S-video lol.
I only ever got to work on a handful of C/Ku band systems. My partner at the time was the big dish expert. He did 100's of them during the 80's/90's.
