This is a G-1000DXA on the right and an 800 on the left and all they turn. 1000 
- An A3S and three Yagi's for SSB. It has been up there for years, thru 
hurricanes and does great. It's not turning much but I'm only 600' from the 
ocean and the salt has done nothing to it. I had a TX2 up there once and it ate 
it up in 2 years and just crumbled apart.

I love the speed knob on it.

I've had a 1000 turning the little 3-el straight SteppIR and a fairly heavy 
35-ft 6M Yagi since 2008 with no issues.
