Just picked up 10 footer

[mr.silverado]

I just picked up a 10 foot unimesh with a chaparral polarotor feedhorn, von-weise acuator, and a Toshiba TRX-120 receiver. Also includes a roof mount kit. The nice thing was that it was already disassembled. The best part was that it was free. Hopefully, I'll be able to start putting it up within a month or so. The guy even offered to help me put it up. Life is good.

That is great mr.silverado!
Finding them already taken apart is always good, having the previous owner to help relocate, PRICELESS!

Let us know on the process of that big boy planted at its new home and pictures and more pictures! I love to read about progress from getting it set up to the first signals on any BIS (Back In Service) dish! Pictures are great also if you can!

And yes FREE is ALWAYS GREAT!!

Excellent addition to your setup!

ah yes, the TRX-120. What a well built tank that is. I have one. Works perfectly. Last week I replaced the battery and the display backlights. Should last at least another 20 years I think.

A free 10 footer with all the trimmings! You did ok Let us know how you make out with it. I had a 10 foot unimesh once, it was a nice dish.

Thanks guys. He originally wanted $50 for it, but his wife told him to just get it out of the yard. Hopefully, I can get started putting it up soon, but spring is here and it's probably going to be on the back burner for awhile.

I still have mine moving my 10 footer. It's been here a long time. That thing is nearly bulletproof! :up
