This video will show you what a satellite dishes focal point can do when you have a bit of time on your hands.

WARNING: This should be done under adult supervision, and welding glasses are HIGHLY recommended to be worn at all times when using this modified dish.
It will also show you the size of the focal point that the LNB has to be positioned at when your using the dish to receive satellites and not melting aluminum cans, setting your self on fire and stuff.
It also shows why you shouldn't paint your dish a light reflecting color or use gloss paint, as it will fry the LNB when the Sun gets in front of the dish.
