A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

You'll need to mention a bit more about your needs for the dish.
.
What frequency will it be required to receive ?
Fixed or motorised fittings at the rear ?
New or used ?

You could do worse than look here, since most of the homework has already been done.

Amsat / 3cms ?

To keep the additional TV frequencies away from the focal point (unless you like Arabic TV) I would suggest an offset, but it's entirely up to you.

So, fixed or motorised ?

yes, Es'Hails-2, either will do the job, using a 1m giby at the moment but need a db or so more gain, and fixed is fine

@jeallen01 might have what you need:
Pics and dimensions here (all the bolts & nuts are in a ziplock bag taped to one of the parts) in the Classified section - haven't weighed it but I'm guessing the total weight is around 35-40 kg.

Will provide address & postcode via PM when contacted - so it's currently between you and @Chr0nik as to who "really" wants it and can arrange collection (but not within next 7 days for family reasons :( )
PS: I am in the W.London area.

You could try using shipley.com to see what they would charge to collect the mount from here and deliver it to you.

Thanks for letting me know and thus "No problem" - sometime someone will want it enough to come here to, or arrange for someone else to, collect it :D

OTOH, some months ago, a forum "timewaster" just left me "hanging" after agreeing that she wanted it but then never told me that she had changed her mind (she'll know who she is if she reads this!) :(
PS: on that occasion, I was prepared to meet her literally 1/2 way to her place for the cost (about £20) of the fuel for the car !
