Following Rob's pictures of his lovely renovation of a 90cm PF dish, I stumbled across this piece of SPACE JUNK on ebay at the weekend and won it for a tenner. Note the really rusty actuator.

Going to be fun O-Ha

Got some brownie points by cutting a few trees back and recliaming some of the garden we haven't seen for a couple of years before I told her :D

The conservatory would take it, but it only sees 28 to 12.5. I really want this for the far east sats and some C band as the Gibbi nips the guttering at 36E.

Seems to be an SMC LNB of some sort .

No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

Looks like a good project!!! :D

By the way, have you considered replacing your Volrollovervo with a 2CV? You could easily slip that dish into the back of a 2CV with the roof, rear window and bootlid removed... :D

Ah, the missus thing.... :-rofl2

But you have to remember, you can't fall off a car (unless you're Mr. Bean in an armchair ontop of a mini!!!).... :D
