Yaesu makes a fine rotor. It sounds like you need a bigger one. I close
friend uses the G-1000DXA to turn a KT34XA and the Cushcrap
2-40CD. Instead of using the buttons, he uses the preset knob and lets the
rotor work out the starting and stopping. It has been up for 7+ years with
ZERO failures.
I have the old venerable Tailtwister! Add the Idiom Press board and it
works great also! I wouldn't buy a new one though.
