So the tower issue aside, if the dish is used for two way communication then:
man_made=tower + tower:type=communication +telescope:type=radio +
tower:construction=dish
If the dish is used for receiving only (whether looking at the stars or
reviving signals from humans in space) then:
man_made=telescope + telescope:type=radio + tower:construction=dish
Is that right?
