[VHFcontesting] FOR SALE- 6 Foot Diameter Microwave Ant

[Malcolm Kent]

Dear fellow VHF/UHF enthusiasts.
Have had this on the ham web sites for a while and not much interest
except on West coast where shipping would cost more than a new one.

Wondered if anyone would be interested. I just don't want to store it
any more and would hate to see it in the garbage truck .

FOR SALE- 6 Foot Diameter Microwave Antenna. This excellent condition,
one piece microwave/UHF antenna reflector assembly is 6 feet in
diameter, made from perforated aluminium with a rolled edge for
strength.
It has a mount for a tower face or a vertical pipe and is complete with
hardware permitting rotation and elevation ajustments to be made.
Its weight is about 40-50 pounds and can be easily lifted by one person
to a cartop carrier for transporting. Will fit  inside a minivan.
f/d ratio is 0.44.
Would make a good antenna for UHF contesting or rover. or even AO-40 RX
Antenna (See QST)
The perforations are 1/4 inch so the reflector will work well to over 10
GHz.
Want $65.00 (or offer- please be kind!!) for the antenna. Can e-mail
photos. Location Toronto.
