Not really a dish but ... I couldn't find any more suitable thread. Rare piece of machinery at a non-bargain price...

Would still be useful today to receive PAL from 70W! And it's on Gumtree for nearly half price.

CHAPARRAL SCT MONTEREY 40 MULTI SATELLITE TV RECEIVER - boxed | in Chinnor, Oxfordshire | Gumtree

I emailed the seller a few weeks back to ask what it actually had onboard - Videocrypt/MAC/digital boards/anything... and I couldn't really get a decent answer back. He sent me a few receipts and manual photos but nothing that actually told me anything I asked for.
So u bought it then just in case ?

Absolutely dreamland, considering I have just seen a Channel Master 1.2 with NP roof mount and stand plus LNB sell for 99p!!
It's £600 on Gumtree but that's dreamland...

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

I keep a couple of smaller analogue receiver/positioners for the time when I might get the far west birds from a suitable location, including the last of the decent 70MHz filtered units from Drake, Echostar and Winersat. There might also be a Cheyenne in the lockup, which was somewhat more sensitive than the Monterey 20 in standard form.

2 Gilat Ka band ODUs
This one is an Anatel branded AN8002 band B. Expensive as is but I doubt that anyone will want the whole lot.

I've not seen one of these before. It looks a bit like a single band AN8024 on steroids, limited use, expensive and big but interesting. A lot of Skyware's Ka kit is made by Gilat.

What looks like a bargain for somebody on the south coast.


The TM6900 is a brilliant piece of kit.

I think the older more weathered one is Ka-Band D according to the Rx and L.O. on its label?

You're right, it's an AN8004, I didn't look at all the pics. It's still not worth £200 unless you're desperate.
