Hello all!

About 10 days ago I had to lower my tower, and tilt it over for some antenna 
adjustments.  Finished with that, and returned the tower and antennas to normal.

Rotating the antennas with my G-2800, the rotor went to the proper azimuth and 
stopped.  However, the indicator did not.  It kept moving.  I verified the 
antenna was going nowhere.  This erratic behavior continued for a few days, 
then stopped.  All was normal for a few days.

Now, it has returned.  The azimuth indicator is as erratic as it can be.  The 
Green Heron controller has checked good.  This erratic behavior has been seen 
with two (2) different software programs.

Any ideas?  Potentiometer has gone south?  Moisture?  Connections?

Thanks & 73,

Kim - WG8S
