Re: [TowerTalk] Ham IV rotor

[Tom Anderson <WW5L@gte.net>]

Fellow Tower Talkians:

Many many, thanks to all of you who have offered suggestions.

From your suggestions I may have isolated the problem to the rotor 
control box (I hope) so I don't have to go rent a scisors lift and crank 
down my TriEx WT51.  Now to get out the trusty DMM and check the box.

The rotor rotates fine, and the brake release releases as it should. 
Just the rotor box indicator needle goes crazy back and forth.  Just got 
through testing it Monday evening  (again) with the help of my XYL 
Cheryl, WY5H who hit the brake release and then the CW and CCW levers 
separately as I was talking her through it on 2 meters.

Tom, WW5L
