Uh well, I do, but this is prime focus. But should be easy to adapt it.

I'd say the 1.8m would be much better than the 1.5m Gibby.
Indeed. The 1.8 has about 1.4 times larger reflector than the Gibby, meaning several dB's more gain.
Main lmitation of PF dish for Ku is requirement for specific feedhorns, C120 LNBs etc.etc. (The Gibby takes "universal" LNBs).

Hang on CJ - are you not in danger of doing a RimanTSS here?
Now you will have TWO 1.8 SMC CM dishes... where to put them all? Where's the WAF? :cool:

I'll have space for them.... Not sure about WAF, but I let her keep cats, so we have an understanding. Might point it at some weak-ish satellite (5e isn't fully here even on a 1.5m). We'll see!

Scopus, CJ,

Has the dish been collected?

If CJ no longer requires the dish I would be interested in collecting it. No worries if its gone or still awaiting collection by CJ.

Thanks scopus for the dish! It was a pleasure to meet you and see some pretty envious equipment you had lying around!
