HI,

Because of the lack of space in the garden, I will need to eventually get rid of my CM 180cm dish. I'd like to swap it with a 1.5m one, ideally a Gibertini (and with a polar mount).

Let me know if interested.

If only I had picked up that free IRTE 1.5m recently offered instead of suggesting it to the photographer :-doh:-doh:-doh

Oh well :(

I see there is more enough of usable space! Lift it up a couple of meters!

That's the plan what I would like to do but the stand is not big enough and thick enough to hold the dish properly, it's 70mm or 80mm thick so at the moment the dish is a bit wobbly and not plumb - I'll be redoing the garden next year so I can play around it then or until somebody is interested in swapping.

A proper groundstand is all that is required, not expensive.

That IRTE one from Pipedream will probably never be used once it makes its way down south........

Should have asked for it but he already gave me a CM 1.2. Hopefully it'll become available.

Then the only cost is transport, the lucky winner - a photographer - is in North London from memory.

Is there any damage to the dish face?

No, it's in pretty good shape. I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them here.

I've still got this one:For Sale - Non penetrating ground mount for satellite dish or antenna - the pole is quite short, but presumably could be extended if a suitable section of "pipe" and a clamp could be found (I don't have those).

No-body (except a time-waster!) wanted it, and so it's been sitting in my garden for over a year - so, again, f.o.c. for collection in W. London.

I've got one of them which is the one that the 1.8m dish is mounted on - pretty good mounts.

Hi, unfortunately I did not have a polar mount with the 1.8m dish.
