I have in my hands a package from C.A.T.S. It is the "quik connect". At some point in the past, I decided it would be beneficial to put a connector on. My rotor just returned from Telex and looks bra

-snip HI Dale, I have the CATS connector on the bottom of my Tailtwister. Every once in awhile, I have to go jiggle it!! Every now and then it seems one of the contacts within opens; a bit of a wiggl

The connector is used by CATS and was used by Hy-Gain. They are not easy to wire but do work okay when you're done. If you screw up, you need a pin extractor to get the pins out. Hy-Gain sells more s

I've had mine on for 5 yrs and it, quite frankly, sucks big time. As the original poster said, you need to give it a jiggle...a trip or 2 or 3 to the top of the tower...depending on how finicky the d

The K8LX style (ugly, simple, sometimes effective) is a pigtail connected, at the rotator end, to either the terminal strip if it is in good shape, or run through a hole drilled in the terminal strip

You can buy all the replacement pins and connector parts you want from Digi-Key 800-344-4539 or Allied radio 800 433 5700. There not expensive. Steve W8GAZ Minnetonka MN The connector is used by CATS

As I am sure many will tell you. try this: get the eight wire "trailer" connector (sold at least by THE WIREMAN) and make up a pigtail from the rotor screw terminal strip to the male end of this wate

And they're already pre-wired! All you have to do is connect one end to the terminal strip and splice the other end to the end of the control cable. No pins to solder and really simple. TOWER TECH ha

Another idea is to do the same thing at the shack end of the cable, then when the thunderstorms come just plug the rotor cable along with the coax. 73 Rick KC5AJX ___________________________________

Does anyone know what type of connector Hy-gain is using on their rotors these days?  I want to set up another rotor with the same type of connector off of the pigtail.   Thanks. Larry, KN8N     ____

If you are looking at the ROUND connector, that is probably the quick disconnect that is incorporated on the later rotors. You can get these from Norm's Rotor Service as well. -http://www.rotorservic
