Had this dish going spare, so thought I would try it with the Hughes for the ITN stuff, quite impressed so might fix this on 19E, as just a dedicated ITN feed dish.P1010001.JPG P1010002.JPG P1010003.JPG P1010004.JPG P1010005.JPG

That dish looks very much like a 1.25m Gibby.

The only difference between the one in the photo and my gibertini 125 is the lnb holder. Other wise it's identical.

@scopus the lnb in the picture, does it pick up H&V ? Or is it single polarity?

Yep, it looks like an axle stand lol. It's a spare two and a half inch pole with some concrete weights on it. Going to put in a more permanent home soon

Just vertical Chris. The H/V job is on the 1.8.

Nice little stand that's all that's needed if you there's nothing in the way :). i guess you will just drill the mount bottom and use the bolts on the blocks as a levelling system :).
