Bargain ! ..... just needs a bit better weather proofing and a mount making. This ought to have flown by now.
 
The idea of travelling to 'mid-Essex' could be the stickler.
 
The dish looks "delicious", does it have a polar mount to make it mobile or is it intended for fixed reception?
And has anyone put it to the test to see its performance?

When will you be collecting it? It hasn't flown yet, we haven't had much wind.

It's still available. Uneconomic to ship to Leeds, it's probably cheaper to buy a new one on Ebay.

So, did this sell ?
 
Has it gone yet ?

No further interest. Would you like it?
Once I have some scaffolding out of the way I'll be able to move it somewhere that I can play with it again but I'll leave it on the market.
 
Thanks but I already have a few reflectors here, both smaller and larger.
 
Still available and still in one piece. I shall have to dismantle it some time as I'm running out of space in the garage. As in the original listing, the petals should fit in some cars. They are about 1250x1200mm.
 
Just a quick one - can you measure the distance between top of the dish whilst on stand to the ground?

1.8m when the dish is as close to bird bath as it can get and about 2.8m pointing as close to horizon as it gets.
There's a free DMAC box to go with it;)
