Does anyone have any experience with Fortec Star dishes? I'm still on the lookout for a used BUD...

Thanks.

Specifically a 6 foot Fortec Star--the one that comes in panels. Anyone have experience with them?

Thanks,

They aren't the highest quality product out there, but I guess you could say they're a good value for the money. One complaint I've heard is that the instructions might as well not be included they're so bad. Might take some fooling around with it to get it assembled, and perfectly round.

Note that they have two models, one with a polar mount, and a fixed mount. The polar mount will allow you to add a motor, or you can use a lock-down bar to use it as a fixed dish if you so choose. I recommend the polar mount model, it's only $20 more than the stationary.
