Ron,

Ive been on the tower several times (see link below). Tower / rotator 
bolts are tight. The noise seems to be coming directly from the rotator 
itself and some say it's normal, others say it's not. I'm hoping that if 
it does fail, it will freeze and not free-spin. Not sure what to expect 
with Yaesu's planetary gear rotators.
