Where to get obsolete satellite dish?

I want one of those old, big, black mesh metal satellite dishes-- the ones that were about six feet in diameter. It doesn't matter if it's dented or rusty, and I prefer one that doesn't work. It doesn't need to have any of the electronics with it. I don't want to use it for receiving satellite signals (which may be obvious by this point); I want to use it to make a collector for a solar water heater.

I would like one as cheap as possible. I would be willing to haul one away if anybody has one they want to be rid of.

Anybody know where to obtain such a thing?

Check with your local freecycle group if you have one in your area. People give things away all the time. Put your county and state in the search, along with the word freecycle and see if one comes up for your area.

Also try Craigslist.
