i have a pole in the ground where a wingegard 10 foot was. will a fortec star 6 foot dish (the new type like sadoun sells) fit on the pole?
 
how...big...is...it...?

Well, how big is your pole?
The Sadoun page says the 6'er will take a 3" pole.
That's the version with the polar mount.

The other version with the stationary mount, probably won't fit onto a pole at all.
Of course you might fabricate some sort of bracket, but I'm assuming that's not the goal.

And of course, a phone call to Sadoun should confirm any of these comments.
I'm sure he'd be quite pleased to chat with you, especially if you're buying the dish. :cool:

edit: server was very sluggish, and Sadoun beat me to the answer. - :up

Yes, I noticed the Satelliguys server was sluggish.

You are right and 3" is the max pole diameter.

Techfizzle, check your pole diameter. If the ID allows a 3" OD pipe to slide in, just slide a 12" long piece 3" tubing half way in, then weld it around the perimeter.
 
its 4 and an 1/8 od i see tomarow if a 3" pipe will fit is it a mount like the old one with bolts or the newer clamp type?
