My interest in satellite tv mainly revolves around fringe reception and feed hunting.
My Triax TD110 dish is pretty good but when I read about dual offset dishes and how they greatly out-perform standard offset one, I become quite envious of their owners.
On the wall of a house in my neighbourhood, there are two satellite dishes, one being a mini dish and the other a larger Philips one which I take to be a dual offset one. Today I spoke to the wife and son of the house owner and they told me that the Philips dish hadn't been used for some time. Consequently, they thought that the owner would more than likely be willing to sell it and gave me their phone number for me to ring this evening.
If it does turn out to be for sale then I'd like to be able to make a sensible offer. I'd like to know what people on here think it's worth and I have other questions such as what type of lnb I'd need but the big question is,'would this dish be likely to out-perform my existing one?' As for the size of it, it appears to be either 90 or 80cm.
