Nope, that's an IRTE 1.8m

what are the dish like any good , how does it compare to a channel master 1.8

Channel Master is an offset dish so it's more efficient.

IRTE are good, do not compare to cheap Fortec Star, this is a completely different quality league.

And it's easier to work with than Channel Master because you can get C/KU-band polarizers for it easily.

I never liked offset dishes myself as everything is so odd with angles and such.
