Think it has been discussed here before but can't seem to find the info... Anyhow, just wondering if anyone has come up with a better/easier way to lock the mast when the rotor is not installed. Talk
Darrell, Hmmm... Interesting thought... Not sure the hardware count is reduced and the part would be bigger but definitely food for thought. Had not thought about trying to use any of the 'in-place'
If you don't need accurate positioning to a fraction of a degree, I would try wrapping some rope around the mast using a stack of turns with some clove hitches, then tie the rope off to the tower leg
I've removed the rotors from the towers at our club station, W5RRR, at my own tower. I used three 18" lengths of the right angled holey steel stock readily available in 3-4' lengths at Home Depot. Wi
