Are you looking at the antenna when it is full cw to align it to south or
just going to the cw stop?? Remember the yaesu g-series goes 450 degrees so
full cw would be west not south.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Trouble getting Green Heron controller to alogn
Friends,
I have a new Green Heron RT-21 controller for use with a Yaesu G-1000dxa
rotor. I cannot get the heading shown on the controller to align with true
North on the physical antenna.
I tried following the instructions many times with failed results. Full CW
on the controller is physical antenna South and full CCW on the rotor is
physical antenna South.The RT-21 indicates South in both cases.
When the RT-21 indicates North the antenna is physically pointing at 20
degrees.
I would sincerely appreciate any RT-21 alignment tips for dummies that you
may have. I'd call Green Heron but I travel every week and am only home on
the weekends.The Yaesu controller indicated properly.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
73,
Mack
