Looks like brand-new...really interested in this dish set-up, is it worth the investment?
hi o'doyle. welcome to our forum. agreed the price isn't too outrageous for everything there. some people ask for way more for just the dish only & some give em away for free in exchange for removal labor. its already disassembled on the ground so that's worth a little more money. I love the fta hobby (so my judgement might be biased) but if it was my money i'd say go for it. i love c-band fta. lotsa cool stuff to watch. it isn't a direct replacement for cable or Dish/Direct however. trying to get both bands c&ku on a prime focus dish can be difficult so some members have separate dishes for each band YMMV. don't know your financial situation so 500 may be a small fortune. echostar dishes aren't made anymore & were good quality BITD. looks like your gonna need to get a diseq1.2 controller for the linear actuator & feedhorn motor. since that feedhorn is a polarotor you'll need a Titanium ASC1 to control both the feedhorn motor & linear actuator motor. ASC1'S are generally good units.really interested in this dish set-up, is it worth the investment?

The price seems a bit high for as cold as it will be for a while. Anyway....It includes a 4D receiver and according to the guy it last moved in 2008. The receiver model number/ Part number is 407829-001. Its quite close to my house. Thoughts?
