I was browsing adds for dishes and came across this one..it's a bit far for me but was curious if anyone has seen this type. It's the first time Ive seen a dish of this type.

Paraclipse? In my area, any ten footer in good condition is worth investigating since they are really getting scarce.

You got it east...I goggled that and that's the one.

They want $250.00 and you have to take it down..It looks like it would pretty heavy.

Awesome looking dish Viper, I've seen a few of those. That's pretty steep and you have to take it down.

Maybe they think the receiver is a gold mine..it comes with an old toshiba box that I would never use,

It would almost be identical to the receiver I sent you as a dish mover. You should try and cut the price...have you got the room for it though?

A Toshiba trx-1820

I have the room now..we moved our fence back.. only problem is my buddy only has a truck with 6 foot bed, so I would need to rent a truck..if they lowered the price..

Unless you take it apart as it looks to have 8 panels.

It may look heavy, but it's mostly aluminum including the ribs. But, it's built like a Russian tank to handle almost hurricane force winds.

Ya that looks like a Paraclipse. I was looking at a 12+ footer one of those but wasn't able to get it in time. From what I have heard they are tedious to take apart but fine dishes. I have a 2 snowmobile trailer that I believe would hold that dish well with the mount and buttonhook feed removed. Just an idea. Maybe someone up there has a flat snowmobile trailer or a flatbed.
