Where to get large satellite dish?

[berguy]

I'm looking for one at least a meter or two wide, but I can't find anything (remotely cheap). I like the ones from the 80s.

Good place for one of those 80s' Dishes is right in this forum. Check this thread frequently http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads...list-dishes-for-you-to-take-a-look-at/page261

I recently purchased an 8ft mesh dish from tek2000 - very happy with the quality and performance! I used to have a 6ft solid from Sadoun, but it just didn't cut it with most DVB-S2 channels and feeds.

Would you guys happen to know anyone interested in radio astronomy on these forums?

They don't really have a section for that, but there is a diverse crowd of enthusiasts hanging in here http://www.satelliteguys.us/forums/231-Ham-Radio-SDR-amp-Police-Scanner-Technology
