It sounds like an oem hotdish.

Notice they only list the material as "Superior steel" whereas the Winegard is listed as 20 gauge.
How much is the Winegard shipping for at the same site to your zip?

It may be a good dish although for the price I wouldn't expect anything too solid. If you order it let us know how it is.

Be careful though. You get what you pay for.

The Winegard is usually 25-30 bucks to ship

Might be like a Hot Dish...nice dish but if you live where its windy, it may not be good

Here's a mini review of the dish you're looking at:

Forget about using a motor with this dish without some modification:

I seen someone use a dustbin lid as a dish on TV once, I think it was Tomorrows World (UK/BBC Science TV Show)

Thanks for all the feedback so far. Looks like I will keep playing with my old P*s until it works.

I think Isa-tel has missed the oversized charge for the dishes. The cart automatically calculates the shipping charge. Looks like he's put the actual weight instead of the oversized weight. For those of you who don't know, UPS, FedEx, etc. charges extra because the box is oversized. I'd say, buy before he finds the mistake.

Also, I just received a letter from Winegard telling us they are raising the price of the dishes. You can expect about a $5 increase on 76cm from your supplier. New price is effective 10/1/04.

Sorry for the bad news..... As Winegards biggest DS2076 customer, I wasn't too happy either.
