Thanks.

The diameter of the bottom of the base for the WS24095 is 34.5 inches

Great pictures, Joncl! I really wanted the 8 footer, and the shipping quote at the time by WSI was incredibly reasonable (it's an even better deal now with free shipping!)... I'm concerned with hurricanes where I live in New Orleans, and chances are I'll have to remove the reflector from time to time. Being able to do that on my own (without having to wait for help) was a big factor in choosing the 6 footer.

With this price and the materials on dish, this is a BIG bargain and excellent price for the goods you can get. I may try to set up my ten footer this year which bought from old house four years ago.

I have not seen anyone mention it, but the 8' will probably weigh at least twice as much as a 6'. Perhaps Robby of WSI can confirm this.
I have been trying to score a free one, but the ones I have been offered are too beat up to mess with. So unless something comes along pretty quick, I will be going for one of these myself. The only way to beat this deal is a free one.

The weight of the WS24095 8-footer is about 125lbs.

I'm assuming you have a friendly freight carrier.
Otherwise, wouldn't two 65-75 lb boxes be cheaper to ship?

We got a guy in Canada looking for a 2.4m dish ... wonder how that works?
Maybe ship it to the border crossing station, and have him come pick it up? -

And, last question, any chance on a polar mount?
Not everyone can find an old (destroyed) BUD to use for the polar mount.
