That looks exactly like mine 1.2m. Mine is a Luxor/Nokia, pre SMW. Steel dish, Polar mount made of aluminium profiles, it takes up to 3 1/2 inch poles. Linak actuator without a speck of rust after all these years. Nokia single band lnb with 11 GHz lo iirc and a magnetic polarizer.
His lnb arms seems crooked.

Edited pole size

Is this the Hughes Ka-band thing for B/C reception you guys are all drooling about?
If so, I might just pop in my $$ for one. Would fit great dead-centre on a 1m dish for Ka-band exploration...

I am in conversation with one chap, he is selling FUBA 2000 (remember- offset Cassegrain), his price is ~180 EUR (including delivery). If I could get total price under 100 delivered then I would probably go for it. But, if price stays like now would somebody be interested?

... the 18Ghz ones seem to be a bit of a rarity at the moment , also be very wary of any item that is sent by the Global Shipping Program from the US, it seems to be a flawless system while making it's way across the States via different carriers all the way across the pond .... UNTIL it reaches the UK handling side of things where it very often goes tits up and mysteriously get's "lost" as the standard statement goes from the two UK handling muppets . A more accurate description would be "knicked" !!. Iv'e complained to eBay & the two UK muppet firms as a company but you might as well p*ss in the wind. A safer way is to contact the seller and post a different way even if it's a tad more expensive.
Rant over, carry on men.

No such luck Llew...
Not that I'm actively persuing another atm..
I want another one of course ...but too many of our members also want 'em ...so took a back seat for now.
If one should appear we dont want to end up bidding against each other..

My seller has not had one for months either, if he does, I will post it and let other members have a crack.

Agree, 100% happy with mine. Won't bid against members - as long as they tell us they are on the case.

Looks a bit of a state but nothing that can't be refurbished.
