Instead of going on a diet I figured the easiest way to gain some payload is to remove the things we don't need. Fitted to our camper is a Maxview B2590/Omnisat 66 Manual Crank Up Satellite System. We don't have a TV and so this is surplus to requirements. We do know it works as we tested it on a friend's motorhome TV and the signal was perfect it just took a few minutes of aligning and we were in business.
The dish is elliptical and measures 85cm in diameter with the height being 65cm. No effort at all is required to crank it and position it - but you do need to cut a 32mm hole in your roof to mount it
It is currently still mounted to the camper and I'm waiting for a day of solid good weather before I take it off so it will be available to post later this week. Hopefully.
The new shiny kits go for around £450 on't Ebay. There was an upgrade to the materials in 2012 making them lighter, this will be around 2006 which is the year of the camper. I'm interested in the £200 figure including postage to the UK or could pick up in Dundee later this week or North Yorkshire from the 13th April for £180.

I have the manual with fitting instructions and European coverage charts and all fittings that go with it will be included.
I'll upload some images later as tinypic is down for maintenance, unless I can link to them from the FB group?

Sounds like mine which I think is 'Maxview' but have to look,
Certainly better than carrying a tripod, dish and cable
Plus it looks modern and space-age
