Default Anyone ever tried one of these, or know what they are?

Item# 180149890102

Looks like it fits the 1224 motor. I've seen them before, but my brain won't dig out the information from the old memory banks this morning

Any reports on how they perform?

Not really. Can't justify a bigger dish. Only Showtime would really interest me over and above what I can get already. My Triax dishes do really well down here, and I'm not into feedhunting. I'm happy to watch others do that

yeah but if an andrews dish or one was in your area that was cheap bet you'd buy it for a play around

Nah - it's similar, but not quite. The eBay one has a much deeper load-spreader on the rear of the face and a different az-el mount.

These are dishes made by jonsa the people that make the dishes for fortec star they are low qulity and for that size dish you need a feedhorn but they do not make one for it and the rust after a few months waste of money.
