The fibo is now sitting in my brother in laws back garden

Final selling price £50.00 after long negotiations

Absolute bargain, I could not resist the purchase

What size pole is required? It has the original polar mount missing the motor and a couple of pieces of bar to take the jack

I literally just collected it and delivered it, I will upload pics if people request it

PS there is some weight in it, it aint flimsy thats for sure :Y
I would put it in a 3inch pole for sure.. It can be modded to fit a 1224 if you have the flange plates from the original Fibo motor.

Thing is I have a 2.3m DH sitting in my back yard waiting to be sorted out

Have agreed to sell my house 10 days ago, now looking for a new house with a large garden minus trees etc

So a thread on the fibo is probably unlikely atm but will get some pics up

I was surprised myself at the quality of the dish

Yes, they are excellent. They can get warped sometimes, unlike a fibre glass dish but oh well.

I like that 2.4m CM, it looks pretty new. Lets see how high price will go.
My 1.8m Prodelin will go to another owner next weekend :(. But I know that guy will take good care of it.

Not bad for 50 GBP. Is that Quad LNB adopted to the feedhorn?

Good luck then with cleaning, installation and tuning. Create new thread for it. Will be interesting.

4wd, at a push buy the one on the 2nd floor, looks more wind resilient!
For example... after some windy days :-rofl2

Just now see your posting and it is for everyone a lesson without words for those who don't know how to install antennas.I hope to see this image as many such "installers". Thanks for the picture.

The last few that have been sold on ebay at bargain prices went for around £350 to £400. Anything less than £350 is a monster bargain.

Unless you have a 1.25m Gibby, it's a bit of a pointless item.
