The PCN had 3 links with a 4' dish at each end of each link for a total of 6 dishes.

A good quality 4' dish will have tighter RPE and better f/b ratio than a 2' or 3' dish. Or maybe they happened to have an extra 4' dish in stock and used it because it was "free".

If it's a new purchase of a 4' dish for a 2 to 4 mile 11 GHz link that would be pretty silly unless they need seven nines of uptime at full modulation (1024QAM 5/6 code rate?) in ITU rain zones M, N or P. Tropical locations.

    I am curious, what is the wisdom behind installing 4ft dishes for
    a 2/4 mile 11ghz link ?

    Is there a technical reason ? or is it just a way to maximize the
    return for the vendor ?
