I think one of the PacNW members should stop by and grab that on their way to Florida for the holidays.
You can drop it off in Memphis...

They don't come apart, it's one piece.
This one may be a rare bird, my 8.5' perf is a Model 2028, both my 8.5' solids are also Model 2028s (the Spoon is a Model 2027).
They are calling this one a Model 2029 and 9 1/2 feet.
Somebody needs to get it...yesterday!
let's get this !
If indeed this is a rare 9½' Birdview, it might be the first one we've documented for sure.
Of course, if nobody gets it, then we'll never know.
If it encourages one of our guys, I am back to working on a magnet wheel mod for the BV's.
Currently in alpha test, soon to go to beta test.
I have just gotten in a shipment of special material, several hundred magnets, and a number of reed switches.

Personally I think it's one of the best looking dishes ever made. How thick is the reflector material? The dish looks durable -- and slightly sinister.
I want one!
The dish isn't like an expanded metal mesh dish, it's a one-piece, perforated dish.
I think someone on here said it was the same as a BV solid only with holes punched in it...
If if was anywhere close to me, I'd have already picked it up...

Yes, the BV "perfs" are exactly like the solids, but "with holes" in terms of their construction. The solids were called "spun" aluminum. Very solid, built to last a long time! Can't remember however if the rolled outer edge is a bit different. Sold these back when 2 degree spacing was a new "issue" and ku-band was young in terms of consumer use. Good for C and Ku. We sold more of the perfs in mid-Michigan only because they looked better to most housewives and property owners.
BV's are always a good bet!

Hey Radio,
You know where any are there in MI that could be taken for a song?
My wife's folks live near Clare and we are up there once or twice a year... If I could plan ahead and time it right...

Man, I hope that can work out for you.
Birdview owners rock! Birdview perf and spoon owners especially!
Well... we were told there were a couple here just north of Memphis... Spiffwilkie or I will have to take a drive up to Nutbush soon to see what we can find...
