I spotted a pile of three of them near where I'm working. These are real big, I'd say greater than 16', commercial grade fiberglass dishes with feedhorns and elaborate LNB's. One of them is damaged but the other two look like they would clean up real nice. It appears that the reflector can be taken apart in three pieces for transport. One of them has a polar mount but I'm not sure about the mounts on the other two.

I'd love to have one of these but its a long two to three day drive home for me. Plus my wife would probably kill me. Anyway, PM me if you are interested and I can give you more information.

16 feet? I can barely walk on 4 !

Got any pictures?
That always gets the tongues ta waggin' - :rolleyes:

I remember last year Linuxman found a similar commercial dish.
Lot of people lusted for it, but nobody took it.
Hope these find good homes.
 
I'm nearby... enough.

I'd love to take a fiberglass dish but I'd get my butt kicked. I got one dish up and another waiting for a stand.

I need an actuator or 2 though. My Von Wiese has play in it and the JGS is "dead".

Any orthomode feedhorns to seal the deal?

Is the TP-Quality good for this size dish?
