Actually they did produce some 2.4GHz feeds but as far as I know they decided not to market them but Pac sourced their solid dishes from China and I know others that sold the same dish but the feeds many times where different and they brought out their own feed for the dish. So it might be same dish but branded different and sold with a 2.4GHz feed as I know there at least used to be others selling 2ft solid dishes with 2.4GHz feeds. But I know few that was interested in paying that much for a solid dish to use as a 2.4GHz backhaul or use a solid dish at a CPE. Most people if they used 2.4GHz for backhauling they where/are to "cheap" to use a solid dish or 5GHz radios so they all seem to go with cheap grid dishes or panels.

Obviously it's 5GHz! Polarity is normally done with an arrow sticker on the base of the feedhorn. Of course if it's been out in the weather it's long gone.
