Hi Alan,
perhaps if you moved the feed out to the focal point of the 2 metre dish it would work. its way too close to the mesh at the moment.
The best way to set exact focus is to peak it on the noise from the sun. Measure sun noise rise using Owen Duffy's NFM program on your laptop plugged into the acc socket on the back of the radio, or an ac millivolt meter across the speaker etc.
