1.2m Prodelin(?) in London, £30 start price, perhaps for someone not keen on a Channel Master. Not sure if the LNB holder is complete.

1.2m Prodelin(?)

Actually, this is 1.2m Channel Master (VSAT version). LNB-holder, yes, incomplete.

Actually, this is 1.2m Channel Master (VSAT version). LNB-holder, yes, incomplete.

Whilst it looks like a Channel Master, the feed holder is made of cast metal with a securing bracket over the top.
The listing confirms it to be a Connexions system (London / Barnet based) making it around 40 years old, part of SMC Supplies Inc.
The polarmount , though solid, will have a large amount of corrosion around the moving parts.

 

[RimaNTSS]

Yes, CM had cast aluminum LNB-holders. Polar-mount really look like Prodelim made. But I think that somebody just married CM mirror to Prodelin polar-mount.

 

[Channel Hopper]

The Prodelin antennas used self tapping bolts to hold the reflector to the mounts. They did make a version for Echostar motorised systems, (supplied through Micro-X for the UK ?), but it was a lighter coloured dish.

I can't remember the product code for the Prodelin receive only polarmount dish, but I'm sure it is in the catalogue somewhere.

 

[Channel Hopper]

Possibly the 1136

Looking at the strength ribs pattern, antenna from e-bay has almost exact strength ribs as this Andrew VSAT antenna

 

[Channel Hopper]

Andrew antennas purchased Channel Master in the mid 2000's, the Connexions antenna would predate this by a good number of years so perhaps it is an inhouse design.

Not a dish, but relevant to the last post, a - brand new - Gensat 4/12, boxed and complete.

These could move a solid 2m dish in their day without trouble, not bad for £20,

I use the Echostar Motorise Dish.
Must be 30 years old now.
Fitted with an INVERTO Ultra Twin Dual Output Satellite LNB nowadays.

 

[Channel Hopper]

That's the one. It had nylon bearings for the polarmount.

If you take a picture of the rear of the dish you should see it mimics a similar rib pattern to the Prodelin antennas

Awesome bargain, dish prices fallen off a cliff.
That bad boy is gonna rake in some nice catches. Are you planning to use it exclusively for Ku-Band or will you have a sniff at C-Band?

Planning to have a sniff at C-Band - specially at 40.5w and 58w but will look into getting a polar mount and motorise it.
