There is a Craigslist posting in my area and was wonder if would be large enough for any FTA
What size are Starband dishes?

Thanks
 
Get more info, Two threads I find suggests there may be different sizes. The first is a 74e http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air-fta-discussion/275795-starband-channel-master-74e-pick-not.html the second is a 84e. http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air-fta-discussion/274169-starband-dish-mod.html I have an 84e on AMC21 doing a fine job. Either of these models will work*, don't know what they are listing.(??)
* what works for one, is not a guarantee it will work for others. (Montana PBS on AMC21 is a good example of this)
 
the 84e is the bigger P* dish?
If so I have one and LOVE it!. The LNB keeps going and going and going. I would buy another 5 if I could find them local and cheap.
Thanks for the info.
I send email and awaiting more info from the owner.
 
Yeah, since I put the correct feed horn on mine, it's an excellent performer. And yes, it's a P*.
