- Go for it. Run don't walk, you'll never look back. I have one up turning my 3 el. 40M beam, 32 ft boom, 42 ft. elements. It has no trouble with that. I really like the small control box; you use an e

- Installed one this summer turning a 205CA on a top stack. Works great! Simple wiring, Zero (north or south) is set in the shack, and you have 720 deg of rotation. Doug -- Doug Renwick VA5DX PO Box 50

- SPID not SPUD... If your feedlines don't allow 720 degrees of revolution, you can always set the programmable limits to a lesser value. In most cases one should be able to (re) design the rotor loop
