I'm trying to get some idea of what this dish might have been used for. I've never seen one with a feed mount quite like this. The guy posting the ad says it 94" in diameter. There's no mount attached, so it would take some fabrication of some kind to make it useful.

Any help is appreciated.

Here's a link to the original ad:

The dish kinda looks like it might be spun aluminum.
But in the picture, it appears to be warped.

Oh, and the button hook is bent up (but that's fixable.
 
Yeah, I noticed the warpage too. I wasn't sure if the angle on the feed meant that it was really an offset dish or not, but I figured at that size it was most likely a prime focus.

Thanks for the feedback.
