As I am upgrading to a Channel Master 1.8m in a few months time, I am consolidating my stock.

First up: Gibertini 1.5m dish with AzEl mount in attractive* green.

IMAG0606.jpg

The stand is not included but it will take any 50-76mm pole. If you already have a 1.25m Gibertini on a polar mount, then it's a straight bolt-off/bolt-on job.

Price: SOLD

Next: Penta 85cm steel dish in brick red

Had this one since 2010 but has been lying in storage for the past 2 years. In good condition - there's a slight scratch on the edge from new(!), as you can see from the picture, but have covered this up so it doesn't rust. A very good performer, above what I expect from an 85cm dish.

Comes with everything necessary for mounting on a 50mm pole or a DiSEqC motor.

Price: £40 - or very near offer

Next: Viasat 80cm dish - see details here

Finally: Technisat SkyStar 2 eXpress HD PCI-Express card

Have used this in my PC until Microsoft drove me away from it and have since migrated to Apple world. Have no use for it now but works well with blind scan, CrazyScan etc.

Price: £30 delivered - no offers

All items except the SkyStar card is strictly collection only from North Somerset - about 10 mins from M5 J21.

(No @CROSSBONES, I am not selling either of my Fibo dishes, but I will buy your Fibo 55 for a full set :D)

* unattractive

Seriously tempted by the Gib 1.5m but have nowhere i could possibly put it, it appeals to me because of the ease of adding a multi lnb bracket to it (which my CM 1.2m cannot)

You forgot to add the all-important * note, unless I've missed it? We need to know just how attractive it is.

Yes, definitely an easier job than the faff on the CM dish... You could probably put it in place of the CM dish without issues. The LNB arm is longer though, so make sure you don't walk into it!

Will leave this on here for a few more days and then it's eBay time.

Does no-one really want a 1.5m Gibertini for £80?

I can't get the dish back to my house. To use a courier is to expensive.

Van hire isn't that expensive if you book in advance.

Could you not strap it to a pallet and check prices for delivery ?, just a thought.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Granted, £360+ delivery for a new one.

You can get them (fixed Az/El) for just over £200 if you look around, though you would then have to buy paint to recreate the lovely green version.

What's the cheapest van rental solution you can find then please, as I am still interested in the dish. If I can get a sensible cost to deliver the dish to me.
