Been a while, but I found a 10 footer on my local CL last week. Took a trip to the east mountains (ABQ) yesterday to dismantle/pick up. Thankfully my Tommy Gate on the truck waited until I got home to crap the bed 😂 the dish came with a Chaparral corotor setup and echostar lnb and I tested the actuator and it works, but the ball joints are soaking in blaster to free up hopefully

I know I just got that 7.5 ft Quadstar last year (right after the eclipse) but bigger is better! I dismantled it tonight, gotta figure out what to do with it later.

Very nice. Did you stop at Burger Boy for a Green Chile Cheeseburger while in the East Mountains?

Anyone know what size the threads are on the scalar ring that comes with the Titanium LNBFs? Seems like M6 x something.....

I put the reflector together tonight but ran outta daylight. The chaparral feed that came with this is part of the scalar ring and I plan on using the LNBF. I did get the ball joints on the actuator freed up so it's good to go. I'll see about getting the feed arms on and try to get help tossing that reflector on the mount. This thing is big.....
