A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

A rather nice Channel Master/Andrew 1.8m dish, complete with non penetrating mount. The mount takes the large street paving slabs.

In 'as new' condition, Comes with both C band and Ku band feeds, though I will have to check if the feed arms require any further metalwork to allow straight swopping. The dish was originally bought as a C-band receive system

Collect from the Kingston upon Thames area. Trade pricing for the two items from elsewhere appears to be upwards of £800.

£400, £350 for the equipment and £50 for the forum.

Pictures of the dish and mount before and after dismantling.

And there is approximatey 20 metres of CT125 cable (a couple of connectors attached) to go with it.

You will need an estate car as a minimum to collect, the ground mount trays weigh some 40kgs each.

I will get a picture of the front end(s) later today once I've pumped water out of the shed.

You think its worth getting this over to my site for 68.5e test? I can arrange transport etc.. Happily buy if it works out. I know some people getting multichoice africa weak with a 1.8m hence though might be an idea, will give an idea of LOS and signal level of transponders etc...

Unfortunately you are stretching it somewhat for your requirements, you need a minimum of a 3m dish to get a sniff of that broadcast.

But it will get Multi Choice Africa just fine on that dish from 36E.
