The antenna masts and booms at MVHS are looking a little 'stressed'.
To reduce this stress, I propose replacing the
Centerville-Miamisburg small dish with a
SXTsq panel and re-aligning the masts and booms.
This may require some antenna re-alignment.
Theoretically, there would be an 8.5 dB loss.

The MVHS to DARA is a separate stand alone mast.
