Abstract: A dish-shaped element (10), such as a parabola, for use in an antenna for receiving and/or transmitting information, the element comprising a dish-shaped part (12) having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side as well as a first outer rim portion (12?) and a ring-shaped part (14) attached to the second side of the dish-shaped part, the ring-shaped part being attached to a predetermined area of the second side, the predetermined area extending from the first rim portion and no more than 25% of a distance, along the opposite side, from one point on the first rim portion to a second point on an opposite side of the first rim portion. The dish-shaped part may be forced into a desired shape while the ring-shaped part is glued thereto.
