Wanted 1m Dish

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have a old Lenson Heath 1m dish in my garage + pole mount. I had it in south of France for five years, and it worked well. Moved out (Lockdown woes) and brought back the dish, to use in another French house. But that might not happen now.

Actual sizes - horizontal 100.4 cm - vertical 106.7 cm - Weight 13.6 Kg (packed - actual weight would be less)
Where abouts are you based?
 
Really nothing on Facebook market place ?
Only either really tatty scrap or people that want me to take the dish down for them.

Or dishes being advertised as a 1m and they’re not.
 
North west of London. About 10 minutes from M25, M1 junction.
That’s a shame, thats a 300 mile round trip. Using the measurements I’d need to bring the van so that would be £60 in diesel.

Hopefully something local turns up soon.

It’s annoying you can’t buy a 1m for £50 brand new like 15 years ago!

Thanks for getting in touch though!

Not quite £50


Cheap ones do turn up, these in particular.


or this might be more suitable

I have seen that Triax but it’s only 98x89cm. Not really sure it will be an upgrade on my 90x85cm.

I have spoken to the seller of the 3rd dish and it’s actually smaller than my current dish which is a shame as it’s local.

I need a Triax TD110, Gibertini OP100 or an Orbital 100cm really.

I should never have given my Orbital away and wouldn’t have if I knew it was going to be difficult to replace.

One will turn up - locally - at some point.
 
Still hunting….

Does anyone have a or have the dimensions of the Primesat 100cm / 110cm alu dishes?

Think I’ve found one.

You think, or you have ?
 
This thread is four pages long, in light of having no images of what you have seen, what stops you from doing the research ?
 
I have and I can’t find any dimensions, otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered asking?

I have been on various sites that have sold them in the past, can’t find dimensions. Been on primesats site, no dimensions.
 
Then post an image, front/rear.

Ring Dave up at Satellite Superstore, he will tell you the dimensions of the Primesat

Thanks will do. Didn’t even realise they were still going.

Yes they are..They are all part of the same setup..
 
 
PS to post #66:

You really DON'T want an old TD110 - unless:
- you will be installing it at ground level (or are otherwise prepared to risk falling off a ladder because it's big, heavy and very difficult to align!!)
- And you have an infinite store of patience
- AND you are an absolute sucker for punishment and want scrapped knuckles, pinched fingers and are prepared to swear a lot!

Take that from one who "knows":(

I can’t get the original 110 in the car so it’s a bit of a non starter but I know what you mean. That elevation design is vile.

I’m holding out for a Gibby 100 or an Orbital.

I’m in no real rush for one, my Gibby 85 is performing well enough.

After 4 months of looking for a dish and 4 pages of topic I think we are in for the long haul on this one, I am guessing this is gonna be a "ten pager"
