The dish is the same size. Your sat C kit will just have a few more connections outside.
Use it till it dies, then get a phase III dish.

I mentioned the additional external connection earlier.
THE DISHES ARE THE SAME. Nothing about the dish will give you higher signal strength.

Let's get the nomenclature right, here.
A Phase I elliptical dish has either two or three separate lnb's. It has a 4x4 switch on the back, and can have a sat c lnb with a specific diplexor called s sat c combiner. There are separate cables connecting all of the components.
A Phase II dish has separate lnb's, but the 4x4 switch and the sat c combiner are built in to the "T" adapter on the end of the lnb arm. Push on male "F" connectors are nuilt in to the adapter and mate with the lnb's. Four cables with female "F" connectors come out the leg of the "T" that fastens to the lnb arm of the dish.
The Phase III dish has one single integrated unit that includes the non removable lnb's 4x4 switch and sat c diplexer, as well as all connections made internally.
It seems apparent they what everyone here is referring to as a Phase II dish is really a Phase I dish. There were not many transitional Phase II dishes made and installed.
