1. [TowerTalk] MonstIR/Orion problem (score: 1): Author: UpTheTower@aol.com; Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2006 09:51:17 EST; Howdy - I've installed 2 MonstIRs and they both used the Orion 2800 rotator with a pinned mast clamp/mast. In the last windstorm, they both started turning. I used an SAE graded bolt for pinning them; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00360.html (7,829 bytes)

The 3rd time it blew, they said they replaced the head bolts with ones that were intentional; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00375.html (8,108 bytes)

Real materials deform in response to the applied forces. I think that is why the M^2 OR-2800 clamp is so prone to slip. I; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00384.html (10,809 bytes)

Re: [TowerTalk] MonstIR/Orion problem (score: 1): Author: "Al Williams" <alwilliams@olywa.net>; Date: Sun, 26 Feb 2006 21:21:58 -0800; It appears that the m2or2800 clamp is a massive but poor design. Have you modified yours? What suggestions do you have. I have two of those rotators so any suggestion other than be prepared to re-cla; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00385.html (8,535 bytes)

Not sure if it held up, however. Last time I was at the club station in Pasadena, the 40 meter heading was off about 45 degrees. This could have been due to sl; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00386.html (8,747 bytes)

Only problem came when we had a really bad windstorm, instead of slipping, it took the gears; /archives//html/Towertalk/2006-02/msg00387.html (7,908 bytes)

Only problem came when we had a really bad windstorm, instead of slipping, it took the gears out in the rotor. This sounds like a typical Hy-Gain rotator failure.
