It's worth £150 secondhand.

Patriot sells me this dish brand new for $250 plus $150 for shipping plus taxes and duties.

I would buy it if i lived closer.

Anyone else agree it resembles a Fibo ? Certainly the cast secondary reflector looks similar.

Actually it's a much better design than the Fibo 120cm.

At the back they have a cross metal bar from edge to edge that holds the dish shape, also they don't have any bolts in the reflective area, it's a real smooth design.

I've seen several Fibo 120s at a Teleports here that have warped due to the back support ring being to weak for holding the shape of the reflector.
