Channel Master 1.2M Polar Mount

Keep an eye on eBay for Channel Master dishes. A good number of the come with the polar mount - even if the seller doesn't realise this. Got mine for £35 .. and that included a 1.2m dish! It needed some work but nothing major.

Thanks for the tip!

I just bought my cm off Ebay, however, it came with an az/el mount that has been modified for a diseqc motor, it works but the dish is too heavy and it take an age to turn.
 
Can you please post some pictures, of the dish, the mount, motor, and where you've got it sited?
I'm using a Moteck H180 motor on mine, which comes with the channel master adapter plate, and it's working quite well:

It does require some slight modification, drilling two holes, but it is easy to assemble, and fit.

But there are other options.
