All:
It appears that one of the motors on my 3 element SteppIR has failed. I
noticed the SWR had shifted badly on several bands so I thought it might
need recalibrating. During the calibration process, I heard what
appeared to be the sound of a jammed motor similar to what a jammed
electric drill might sound like.
My guess is that the motor itself might be fine, but it could be the
beryllium-copper element that's damaged or possibly a broken sprocket.
Whatever the case maybe, I might need a new motor and was wondering if
any one has priced them?
My antenna is about 13 years old - hope it's worth investing in.
Tony
