Cool. Here's a working link:

Item# 260140643332

Looks like a two-piece CM 2.4m dish to me? :?

wod · 17-07-07, 08:59 PM

hmm does indeed look like that andrews 2.4m dish

btw how do you do those links ?

Type (or paste) the text you want to see, highlight it and hit the hyperlink world icon above. Then after where it has 'URL' in square brackets, insert '=' and paste the proper URL.

Sounds fiddly but it's really quick to do.

I also underline it before adding the hyperlink to make it obvious.

Exactly what I were thinking

I will be keeping an eye on this one. I am going to email and ask for some better pictures. One thing that caught my attention is that the description says it has an arm, wouldn't this sort of dish be prime focus? Also it says its a 2.8m, do you think he meant to say 2.4m? Do Channel Master/Andrews do a 2.8m dish?

Must be nice to have room for a 2.4 or even a 2.8m dish.

BGonaSTICK · 19-07-07, 12:37 AM

It's a 2.4m Andrews/Channel Master offset dish IMO.

It's not prime-focus - and it's three support arms are arranged like it's smaller brothers.

It should do the trick for 7w ok? Do you think the LNB will need replacing?

So at the front of this dish its just like my 88cm Triax with the arm? All the other Channel Masters I have seen don't usually have arms, or have I just not seen em?

As stick says its a 2.4m Andrews/Channel Master offset dish.If this have been for sale in the north of England,i would have bid on this one.But as its in the south its to far.
