Usually the larger the dome, the better the signal to be received. Traditionally larger dishes/domes allow for faster transmission speeds. Larger domes have larger sat dishes inside of them and they can track television or phone/data signals better in rougher sea states. The larger domes usually have greater world wide coverage areas in which to hook up with a satellite.

The answer is yes. The 130 is called Freedom (ex. Seaquest)
