Just to letting you know, we are just about to import and sell BRAND NEW Conifer (same model as the old galaxy pay tv antenna's) , in both 18 dbi and 24 dbi models to the general public for $107.00 AU each inc GST. within the next month or so.
These antenna's are almost identical in construction and design to the Andrew corp antenna which retails for $373.00. They have the exact same magnesium alloy dish as the Andrew, and it doesnt bend or rust like the cheaper steel antenna's, (good for coastal towns)
We are also offering to sell these in bulk to any one that is interested in re-selling them, or want a better price by group buying.
These are all brand new, still in plastic wrap, and the horns are semi attached to allow them to be sent by freight more easily and cheaply.
We are expecting the first batch to arrive shortly, and will be available very soon.
Also just a quick note.... Im not a retailer or antenna company, Ive just come across a limted batch of these antenna's, and im just putting the word out that Ive got some available for sale though my small internet kiosk business for tax reasons.
The Conifer is one of the best known directional antenna's for wireless networking for use over long distance, or for high speed short distance, and the 24dbi version is known to reach 15 to 26 km's with line of sight view. They have been field tested in many different enviroments and senarios, and have proven to perform extremly well...
Look up Galaxy Antenna on Google (under Australia search) to find some independant tests.
We are using a new customised dipole in these antenna's to give an extra 3 db, and these will actually perform better than most of the tests you may come across on the internet, as ours are not the PCB cut modification type, which people usually do to run them on 802 wireless, but the tuned brass copper type dipole modification.
The antenna's will equipped with an N plug and a half metre tail, so they will be ready to just plug in and use. We started advertising these without the plugs but many people seem to be turned off by that, and thought it was too complicated, so now its included.
You may want to use different types of plugs and wiring for your individual setup yourself... The choice is yours...Just tell us, if so before ordering....
Most people will have different ways of setting up their rigs, Eg using differnet plugs and cabling , putting an access point up with the antenna, or 3 meters away running just inside the roof, or running coax staight to the computers , etc etc ,
Give us yell if you have any custom wiring needed.
As a standard, these will come with a common N connector, and enough tail to either plug in an extension coax, or a very closley mounted AP, if using a N to SMA adaptor.
Also note : For the people chasing the few remaining ex Galaxy/Austar Pay TV antenna's that were left on roofs in Australia back in 97, they are still actually the property of Austar (yes they are still going for those who dont know) and it is illegal to sell them or give them away.
These antenna's were leased to the person that used that service, and are not owned by the owner of the house that the antenna sits on. The remainder are still being slowly pulled down, when a house gets a satellite service installed.
Also there are high risks of liabilty if you hurt yourself trying to scale the roof of a complete stranger, and damage can be done to old tiled or corrugated roofs when trying to rip these off.
If you have any other questions or enquires, feel free to call me on 0411351297 (I live in Brisbane) or email viperwebkiosks at bigpond.com .
Cheers Russell Smith.......
