They are quite light for size, I can lift it on my own, which I couldn't with my old 1m channel master.

Motor doesn't seem to struggle turning it, and yes they are about £80 on Ebay.

these dishes are good the are oem dishes and are made by jonsa it is the same as the fortec star the real size of the dish is 1.2m but eurostar say 1.3m which is wrong as all 1.2m dishes are 1.3m high and 1.2m wide,

The 1.5m version of this dish is also very good

Yes you can get a polar mount for it all eurostar Scorpio and fortec star dishes are oem jonsa dishes you can also use them with the 1224 mount,

both the 1.2m and 1.5m are very good the 1.2m is better than the 1.2m andrew some people sell them as 1.3m and 1.6m but they are not they are 1.2 and 1.5m dishes

Just to add on the original box from Eurostar, it states that it is a 130cm Dish, so this could be why some suppliers are selling it as 1.3m
