Hi Everyone,
I have two STEEL 75 cm oblong dishes that I can't use. Too heavy for roving. They have most of the hardware and the feed arm. However, there are no feeds. Free for pick up.
I am looking for a 75 cm aluminum dish. This is the dish that
Jon, KØFQA, sold many years ago. Many of us bought them from Jon.
The dishes were made of thin aluminum so I don't know how many
survived. Jim, KFC uses one on his dual band setup. There are many
to be found on the internet from China. They are dirt cheap.
Unfortunately, I don't need a thousand or more of them. The dish I
had was left by the road side a number of years ago at the Kiester
site. Very windy that morning. I was in a hurry to leave and
forgot I had moved it to the right side of my car out of the wind
and didn't put it back in the trunk when I left. I only realized
it was gone a few sites later when I didn't see it in the trunk
while setting up. I'm sure there was an aluminum UFO flying around
the area that weekend. If I hadn't been roving alone another rover
may have noticed.
Here are a couple of images from the internet to jog everyone's
memory.
These look just like the dish I was using.
If anyone has one that has survived and is willing to part with it please let me know.
73, Gary WBØLJC
