Looking to get into C band

[danleeper80]

Hi everyone,

I've gotten pretty good with my ju setup with multiple dishes, mirror switches etc. I'm about to upgrade to C band either purchase something new or rehab an older setup if the price is right. I'm located in NEPA an 40 minute drive to Allentown, Scranton, and Wilkesbarre if there's anyone local looking to offload. Any ideas of whom offers equipment and is reputable?

I think this one is close to you and it's free:

Prices attached for a new DH antenna.

The free route is the most rewarding I'm harvesting some c-band dishes this fall. Sunday I have a Winegard Pinnacle scheduled to fetch.
Also today I talked with a local High school about recovering two 10' dishes no longer being used. A 10' Uni-Mesh on an AJAK H180 and a 10' KTI

Shipping is my biggest concern getting a 36in geosatpro wasn't cheap once that figure was added. I've seen 6 to 8 ft dishes for sale in various places but shipping doubled the price yuk!

Recycle if at all possible is the way to go. There's other 'things' that may need upgrading that require $$, like maybe a new actuator and LNBF, pole and wiring.(??) Other than the one listed by A Raine, Keep an eye on the thread Kijiji, eBay, and Craigslist dishes for you to take a look at (FF to the most recent pages)
Hope you don't run up against a HOA or local regulations.

OP: I'm in Harrisburg and I have a ten footer and accoutrements that I can't use. Just no place for it. If you want to make a trip, I would sell it.
