- You might consider the alfaspid rotor as well. A very heavy worm gear driven DC rotor. Check their website, its turning some big stuff. 73 Mark W0NCL _______________________________________________ S

- Greg, In terms of brute strength, quality of worksmanship, and dedicated customer support from Wyatt Lyzenga and colleagues in Fresno, I don't think you can beat the M^2 Orion OR2800 PDC rotator base

- Oops... You also asked why. The PST-61 is rugged, requires no brake and has no play. The HDR 300 requires a brake, the brake switching is really odd ball in that you have to manually turn off the bra

- The M2 OR-2800 is a great rotator. Just Check the specs. Also, service from M2 is outstanding... 73, Ted K2QMF P.S. - Make sure you get the new version with the green readouts.. Has all the updates.

- Did M2 ever do anything about the awkward programming of the control box. It just didn't seem simple to change direction when I operated a several year old 2800. This unit made you read the manual on

- I have a new 2800 and the first one had to be sent back to the factory because it took 20 seconds to turn 15 degrees and made a loud hum in the receiver when it turned. It took several telephone call
