Since its an old dish it has torn out in abt 3 places. Does it effects the signal quality???

Has anybody faced this kind of problem???
Can anybody suggest me any solution to this???

I would appriciate any kind of help...
Thanking you..
are you saying the mesh is torn out in 3 places? if so yes this will effect signal. also depends on the size holes in the mesh if you will be able to receive ku with the dish.
