Nope, looks like a dish of some sort, that definitely looks like an LNB at the back. What does it say on the bracket, can't quite read it.

Couldnt quite see the name & i didnt want to walk on to their garden to find out, definately a dish the front of it is solid white and what looks like the back of an LNB sticking out the back. Judging from the position it is mounted, it is somewhere between 28 & 10o East.:confused

Conical horn / Lens...something like/between that:confused

It´s pretty similiar to point to point GSM antennas in 16Ghz.

This does not looks like GSM relay antenna - too long for it. check codan.com or similar for such equipment, while looks alike, design is different.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Branded Revox back in the mid-nineties it is a horn antenna with a perspex lens to focus microwaves to the back of the conical structure.

I installed a few as they were exempt from planning (not dishes), but I was always suspicious of the mounting bracket as the thing weighs about 15 kgs. Not nice if it falls on somebody.

Thank you, googled it and seems it is a Revox, also seems it suffers from interference from adjoining sats but no probs for sly UK.

wonder if its owner knows how rare it is.... ££££ :-rofl2
