Much as I'd like to keep it, I prefer to get my garage back. The dish, as seen here The C-band Tin-Dish challenge and tested here The C-band Tin-Dish challenge is for sale including the pallet, castors and stainless steel fixings but excluding the feed and electronics.
The pallet is about 1250x1050x300mm with castors and 180 high without. If you don't have a van, the petals should fit in some cars. They are about 1250x1200mm.
£130 for the lot. If you don't want the pallet then you don't have to take it.
£100 for dish and stand alone, with original, unused, plated fixings
Collection only from mid-Essex

Bargain ! ..... just needs a bit better weather proofing and a mount making. This ought to have flown by now.

The idea of travelling to 'mid-Essex' could be the stickler.

The dish looks "delicious", does it have a polar mount to make it mobile or is it intended for fixed reception?
And has anyone put it to the test to see its performance?

It's still available. Uneconomic to ship to Leeds, it's probably cheaper to buy a new one on Ebay.
The pallet is about 1250x1050x300mm with castors and 180 high without. If you don't have a van, the petals should fit in some cars. They are about 1250x1200mm.

No further interest. Would you like it?
Once I have some scaffolding out of the way I'll be able to move it somewhere that I can play with it again but I'll leave it on the market.

Thanks but I already have a few reflectors here, both smaller and larger.

Still available and still in one piece. I shall have to dismantle it some time as I'm running out of space in the garage. As in the original listing, the petals should fit in some cars. They are about 1250x1200mm.

Just a quick one - can you measure the distance between top of the dish whilst on stand to the ground?

1.8m when the dish is as close to bird bath as it can get and about 2.8m pointing as close to horizon as it gets.
There's a free DMAC box to go with it;)
