The M2 OR2800 will handle up to 35 square feet of antenna and support 1800 pounds.

It also fits in the tower nicely because of its triangular shape.

Hi Tower Talkers

I'm planning to replace the TH-7DX on my tower with an Optibeam OB17-4,
which is a much larger antenna. I'm now looking at my options with regard
to rotators beefy enough to handle this antenna (~27 sq. ft. wind area).

Which of these would be sufficient to handle an OB17-4? Alfaspid RAK (the
rotator currently on the tower), an Alfaspid Big RAK, or a Prosistel PST61.
I don't need a controller as I already have a Green Heron RT-21.

Thanks,
Jerry
