Hello Al,
I put this response on line as I get a lot of e mail concerning the BIG BOY
rotors
just like yours.
First, please check on the webpage for PROSISTEL BIG BOY which is
www.firstcallcom.net/bigboy.html Please understand we can not keep up with
some
changes much less the orders coming in. The base had changed as did many other
specs
on the BIG BOY units. I would go by the webpage until literature is actually
printed. The "clam shell" mast clamp is in development and actually made.
Expect to
see a special design shortly. When everything is ready and production catches
up, you
will see full page ads in many mags. Prosistel has a good line of rotors but
never
expected the selling job we have done for them.
Again, don't give up, just give us a call. Look at our website
Regards, Joel, K2QBV

Regarding your installation, whatever it is, BIG BOY will turn it and have a
reserve.
Remember, this is a double worm gear design with a 1/4 HP motor.
