What do I need to to advertise a large FREE Birdview satellite dish and all equipment

The photo shows the LNBF mount I am trying to use with my Birdview dish. The LNBF is held in place using an interference fit that has some black electrical tape wound around the throat. I used the same mount with my previous Birdview dish and it worked OK, but not great. I need to come up with...

I found a Birdview dish on Craigslist several days ago listed with a title of "Free scrap metal". Fortunately when you do a Craigslist search it also searches the body of the message, because my search was for 'large satellite dish'. Below is a clip of the ad: I got another Birdview dish...

Hi, excuse my ignorance on the subject but I am located in Lansing, MI and have a large satellite dish. I am not sure if birdview is a brand or a style, but mine looks like other dishes listed as birdview. I am looking to find somebody to pass the dish on to. I also have some of the old...

I'll add to this as I have time... Paul M, who gave me my 5th Birdview satellite system last year was cleaning his house, and found some old docs about Birdview. None were really "technical" but, wow, they bring back memories. Birdview used to send nice slick heavy-stock promotional color...

BIRDVIEW mesh disk 7.5 ft + 14.5 ft mounting pipe + more than 75 ft of cables. NO in-house controller. FREE to a good home... but NOT for scrap!!! Local pickup only, by appointment only, Fort Pierce, FL

Well found this lovely dish. In amazing shape. I only looked for a few min today and did not test the motor. Over all shape has to be 9/10. Now the debate comes should I pick her up or look for something a little bigger. I could still get the 12 foot paraclipse but she needs some heavy...

My father passed away in May and I am trying to get his house ready to sell. He has one of those huge Bird View dishes and I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions in the St. Louis area on how to get rid of it? Who to call, etc.... Thanks so much!

...discussion about cars, etc. the subject of the salesman's previous experience comes up. The salesman proceeded to tell about working for Birdview and how they'd give him $2,000 cash for expenses and he'd drive a 1-ton dually with a trailer loaded with Birdviews for delivery to all parts of...

For some reason I can't post a reply on that thread.Just wanted to add: Cool post! I wonder if the various dish manufacturers realized that many of their dishes would still be functional 30+ years later? Of course,everything wasn't built to throw away like it is nowadays.Heck,we even have...

My father has a 10 foot BirdView solid (not panel) satellite dish with heavy duty mount he would like to have go to someone who would use it. He removed and stored the linear actuator for safe keeping, so it is not shown on the photo. Worked great the last time it was hooked up. No dents due to...

I have a Birdview solid but haven't used it since the 4DTV dish mover quit working. Looking into getting a Dish Network package. Can the DN LNB be mounted on a BUD and how? Has anyone gotten a DN installer to do it?

I'm new to this. I do have microhd and a small dish. But I found a 10ft solid aluminum dish a few miles from my house. I'm going to pick it up tomorrow. It will probably be a few days before I can get it level and in ground. I Wanted to get some info on it and now I can't seem to remember the...

...last spring and have been thinking over the idea. I checked some fabrication costs and I can make a 40" dish ring for the KTI that fits the Birdview mount for about $50. I also want the BV to fit a 4 1/2" pole so I will change the pole clamp on the mount. The KTI has some damage so I think...

I found a Birdview 8 1/2 solid on Craigslist and picked it up today, along with the base stand, motor/mount and some LNBs that the guy had in his garage. He was going to make a 'tracking solar concentrator' out of it, but his wife didn't want it. He had two solid dishes about the same size for...

I have a huge satellite dish made by Birdview sitting in my back yard. Free to whomever wanting to remove it. It sits on a big old steel column. You do need to have good tools and some liquid wrench to get this off the ground. My house in on the East Side of Houston near Channelview-I-10 area...

...As luck would have it while running for work I passed an old motel with a white dish out front, a quick look and I thought I saw a 9' solid Birdview. After turning around and getting off the tollway I came to the hotel, found the office and asked with whom to speak to about the dish. The...

I've had my FTA system up-and-running for a couple of years now, and love it. My primary dish is a Birdview perforated dish with H-H motor, scanning C-band and Ku-band satellites from 72°W to 139°W. I also have a dedicated, fixed Ku dish pointed at 30°W. But, I have acquired some extra things...
