LARGE ANTENNA SATELLITE SATELITE DISH

Looks like it's fiberglass. Anyone guess a manufacturer?

Looks similar to 1.2m dishes I've seen at gas stations around here, but that one appears to have a C-band LNB on it. Curious.

That's a Channel Master. It has a single polarity Ku LNB on the feedhorn. Here is a thread about mine. ? offset angle Primestar 1.2m

No, It's just an old Primestar single polarity LNBF. This dish would be a great choice since it's a Channel Master 1.2 meter dish.

Not an LNBF,feedhorn with flange mount LNB,as Magic said.

IF it's the Primestar (Channel Master) 1.2m dish (and it does seem to be that one. They are real rare in my area, I have only ever seen a single one) it's well worth the $100, especially if the non-penetrating mount comes with it. Heck, even if you don't want the mount (at least take the mast post) I would NOT however pay that price for the slightly smaller 1m Primestar dish.

That dish at the 1.2m size is nearly unbeatable (especially) on a polar mount for signal gathering compared to any other dish! You will need a donor polar mount from at least an old 6 foot dish, as the OEM polar mounts for these dishes are extremely rare in the wild, and you will never likely find one.

Keep laughing. I HAVE an actual OEM Channel Master 1.2m polar mount (with the built-in offset) in my shed!

I think I'll frame it some day, LOL.

I had many, but only one box (unopened) left.
