Whady'all think?  Will it do?

That big white thing at the back is the counter weight!  (the white sloped
bricks and the transiever dome add quite a bit of weight)

Very nice! Maybe you could use technic axle elements and connectors
instead of bricks for the receiver mount? It would save some weight.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.  I'll look into it.  For now though, it's
perfectly balanced, and it looks rugged.  Like it could withstand hurricane
or somthing.  I may or may not change it before the show, which is fine
because at least we know that we have a dish right now.
