My System: Sugar antennas:) |
Antennas can be art  This antenna was found in a Italian forum (digital-forum.it), the antenna creator Constantinopiri said that the antenna is working for Hotbird and it weights around 40Kg. My italian is very poor, so i didint understand how the antenna is made (probably a metal sheet is hidden somewhere)..or is it made 100% of stone??  | ||

If you look carefully at picture 4 I think you can see the edge of the (white) dish buried in the concrete | ||

My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT | Looks like a Fracarro penta, embedded in concrete, maybe its fibre glass stuck on the front and painted to make it look like cement/rock. Great idea though for a discreet dish. | ||
