That I was thinking as well because of the back-frame. Also, the holder for the bottom arm is like Fibo one. But there is a round hole for the bottom feedarm....so, the antenna looks like some kind of old Frankenstein. :D

For anyone who wants a tracker for a medium size dish, this would be real bargain. Just add a couple of stepper motors and encoders and find a crane to lift it into position. Approx weight 390kg, overall height 78cm, base dia 45cm:

Precision 1.5m motorised setup with Jaeger 1224 H-H motor.
The motor would clean up OK and the feed arm that is possibly siezed on the feed M8 stud can easily be released with a lick from a blowtorch.

The rear mounting ring boss heads seem to be non standard, possibly a custom order from Precision like this?
Or an aftermarket adaptation?

Overpriced in the current market at £450 for "Buy It Now", the pricing is typical of this seller.



At £150 collected it would make a nice motorised setup, could even be tempted myself as a dedicated Ka-Band setup but seller is hungry, no chance of value.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Looks like it might be a 90cm but the included Az/El mount means it will simple to mount on a DiSEqC motor with less (if any at all) bodging required than with the more common 3" Az/El mounts.

Also receiving Atlantic reception so, bargain!

Real bargain, someone save it. Anyone want a 1.4m ex RTE SNG dish that's currently blocking my drive?

I also have the controller but the cables were cut when it was removed from the van and I can't find any info on the connections. I had it moving using the PSU that's sitting on the frame. Elevation was fine, azimuth OK as far as I could move it without it toppling over. It's quite impressive when it unfolds. There are 2 nice absolute encoders fitted but data on them is elusive. The feed has rotation for skew. It cost peanuts but a fortune to ship, it's a 4 person lift.
