Ac135w - anyone know anything about this dish

[Manikm909]

seems to be a contender in the 1.2m + range ....

ive ruled out Gibby 125 due to weight, but found this dish on:

parabole 140 acier ac138w

parabole AC138W LABEL.ws acier142 X 130 cm. Grand gain, pour reception difficile. arabsat, turksat, nilesat... avec support adapte. prix exceptionnel .

cant find out the weight tho...

 

[jeallen01]

"Acier" in the title almost certainly means that it's made of steel (acier is the French word for steel!) - so it won't be "lightweight"!

Interesting this one is also steel then and only 9kg

Another TRIAX "3+ hands" jobbie ????

And, if it's only that weight, then probably quite thin metal, and thus liable to damage??

In addition: Triax, as usually cheating.... not giving offset angle of the reflector, not giving exact size of horizontal size of the working area. I have no doubts, it is simple 1.2m antenna with unknown weight.

Lol the azel bracket looks OK

"Label" is 2Galli's budget range. I can't see it being anything other than weighing in on the heavy side. Also, check out the image of the rear pole mount. It's okay for either on the top of a pole or an upward pointing motor stub, but would require some modifying if you wanted it mounting on a 'normal' motor.

so play it safe and get the laminas... roger.

"Assembled Weight: 9.5Kg "
I'd say that is correct. Good dish for the money, but have a look at this tweak, which enhanced the signal by many dB's.

1st dish in France

^^^ not in writing, but personally from 'Le Maire', but may change his mind if seeing a bunch of 3 to 5 meters all over the property :O) But that won't happen, so should be all clear. Been walking around with the compass today looking for spots in between hills and trees, restrictions all...

this dish looks alot like a primesat 1.3M. well i have one of these where i could not get a diseqc motor to mount due to the rear mount bracket not allowing tilt correctly. so i used the mount plate to fix my gibby and dish and rear bracket now just laying around. the other issue i found is that the rear bracket did not fit great on the dish. i still say go for the gibby but weight wise triax TD110
