its a 1.2m polar mount dish that requires an 18" or 24" actuator and controller for tracking the satellite arc.
ebay item # 232390622960 sells them and also tek2000

Looks like the same polar mount used on the 6ft dish that Sadoun used to sell.

That price is too high for a 4ft dish, even if it includes a polar mount. It's easier to just get a polar mount off a smaller trashed dish, and adapt it. All you have to do is add angle iron to tilt the top of the offset dish forward.

That price includes the mounting pole as well, also includes the LNBF and a conical scalar. That does make it a good deal imo. Although this pole is obviously smaller than the one I bought for my 10' dish that pole was $150 and just about that much for shipping so the pole figures into it as well.
 
look for a used 8 10 or 12 foot dish.
The good stuff is on C band.
KU band is limited for english channels.
I myself have 3 fixed KU dishes for News channels.
one mini bud and a 10 foot C band dish.
tell us what you and your family would want to watch.
and you will get good advice on what to get.

The listing is for the dish and pole only.
"Feed, LNBF, conical scalar, actuator and controller sold separately"

I have an 8ft cband dish already. Just looking to see if anyone has bought one to report on.
I like the idea to move the dish via actuator/dish mover instead of a Diseqc motor specially with a 1.2m dish.
