[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1072998, member: 176704"] Following an automated alert from eBay, I came across this [URL='https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/192945015687']Gilbertini 1.25m[/URL] ally dish and ground mount earlier this afternoon in West Drayton which is only 5 miles from here - Looks in fairly good condition and there was only one longstanding bid of £80, and the bidding was set to close about 10 mins ago. Did a bit of digging and then couldn't resist putting in a cheeky £90 quid max bid to see if anyone else was serious about the dish, and what it would finally sell for - but it turns out that neither the original bidder nor anyone else did bid, and so I got it for £82 and hopefully will pick it up in the next few days. Only thing is that now I will have to find a place to use it - maybe on one of the 2x Alsat mounts in place of one of the TRIAX's if I can make it mount on the dish stub (possibly difficult because this dish seems to need a large diameter stub). I'll probably need CH to come over again and install it for me as the right knee is getting really bad (even walking more than a few yards, or standing for a minute or so, is now very difficult) and so I'm now due for a knee micro-surgery operation within about a month :rolleyes:. If that doesn't work out, then I'll put it in the Classifieds here on the forum! [/QUOTE]
