Unlikely to be pre 1990.
You may need to get some/any numbers from the dish, or take some pictures of the back plate and mounting system.

Unlikely to be a Patriot, they were not around 25 years ago, and their cassegrain antennas normally came as a 16 section reflector (the picture shows 12) with an all in one post housing rather than a kingpost and stabilisers.
It might be a Chinese make (Xi-an ?), but I have no specifications here.

Back Then there were many differnt people making dishes.
Its not any Andrew, Vertex was a New company then, the Guy who started Vertex was an old Harris employee, It might be a Harris Antenna.
BSB (as in British Satellite Broadcasting) near Southampton Had 2 from a company called DAI Dallas Antenna I(?) Re 1987.
Another Company was TIW (Toronto Iron Works)
NEC also made antennas till 1996/7'ish
Mitsubushi also made large antenna's,
FORD Aerospace Div, Yes an off shoot from FORM Motors.
To name a few from what I can remember.
