A friend of mine has a dozen of these dishes available. These are a 2 
foot prime focus dish with button-hook waveguide feed for 23-24GHz. I 
haven't seen this batch but previous dishes mostly came with the 
radomes. They are basically free for the hauling, FOB North St Paul, MN. 
If I have to ship them, I expect the cost to be in the $30-$50 range due 
to the 30" or larger box that would be needed. Let me know if you are 
interested.

John W0ZQ suggested early this year that maybe NLRS could kick-start 
more activity on 24GHz by starting with 24GHz Gunnplexers and seeing 
what we could do with them, sort of by recycling some of the old 10GHz 
Gunnplexer systems still in NLRS-land. If we want to try it, these 
dishes would be way more than the minimum needed. I also have some 
others that have gunnplexers and maybe they could be used for the 
project. I think there are a number of our members who have 24GHz 
Gunnplexers squirreled away in a drawer somewhere. Should we do 
something with them?
