Wanted: Satellite Dish (A big old school one)

[kevman]

I'm looking for an old satellite dish that is large. It doesn't have to belong to a provider and it doesn't have to work. All I want is a spherical dish that has a diameter of ~8ft. Does anyone have or know where to find something like this? I'm not looking to spend a lot of money.

You just saw "Contact" and have a big crush on Jodie Foster, don't you...

Haha. This reminds me of the time I was driving along with my dad and we passed a car that had about 10 antennas on it. He says "what's with this guy? Trying to get in touch with the aliens?"

Got plans to do some suicide tobogganing?

Backyard snowboard park actually Just something a little more original to add to the garbage can, hand rail and quarter/spine/quarter set up...

Well I've found a few places that actually charge to get rid of them since they're big, bulky and more or less obsolete so I was hoping to find one for free. I'll save them a trip to the junk yard with a very difficult to move satellite dish...

I have yet to figure out how I'm going to transport it myself with my tiny truck but I'm sure it'll just work...

I used to install these years ago...They come apart in 1/4 sections for easy transport.
