Hello fellow SARA members - I am helping someone in Washington, DC find a 24 inch diameter dish antenna that has a circular feed holder (40 mm diameter) for the LNB and an adapter for pipe mounting the antenna on a rotator.

The attached images show a suitable example of the antenna and mount. Does anyone have such a dish to sell or know of a source on the USA east coast? If so, please contact me direct at whit...@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Whit

I may be wrong but offset dishes do not work best for 1.4ghz  HL antennas.

see the link  https://www.rfhamdesign.com/products/parabolicdishkit/


Not Cheap because of shipping. And alternative might be a home built  like I did 47 inch.  1.1m +/-
