Where to Buy New C Band Dishes?
I realize there are plenty of used C Band dishes available throughout the US and Canada, but are there places that still sell new 10 or 12 footers? Since SAMI went out of business, many places state they don't sell any large dishes. I'm located in Canada, so Canadian sites would be preferred if anyone knows of any good ones.

I think
Mike Kohl
mentioned something about buying the SAMI stuff and was planning on starting something back up. Not saying that he is the only source but he is a wealth of information and i'm sure can point you in the right direction. I'm sure there are others out there so maybe someone else will post themGet rid of this ad below, as well as the link redirect by becoming a Supporting Pub Member

IIRR, all the SAMI tooling was moved to Michigan, with production planned to commence in 2012. But as of now there has been no announcement from Mike. (Or anyone else) Michigan- my thinking is the location is good for export to Canada.

I keep checking Mike's site for updates on the mesh dish's as I would like a 10 footer myself. I would also be happy to help him get out the word on the new dishes as well. American made... I like it!

Why ?

If you are made of money, try General Dynamics, Prodelin Division.
Also, check with DH Satellite.
Both manufacture big dishes in the USA.
You didn't ask for mesh, and these aren't!

I just need one. I'm interested in backhaul / wildfeeds on C Band. I get some on Ku, and have optimized my setup there... now it's time to move onto C Band. And yes, I would spend the money on a new one (why else would I ask).
