Regarding the rotor cable posts, I thought I would share the source of MY
rotator cable. Visit whoever handles traffic lights for your area
(Town, State DOT, County, etc) and try to scrounge Traffic Control Cable. It's
typically 6 or 7 conductor of #12, and is
in a practically indestructible black jacket. (After all, it hangs from traffic
lights for about 50 years!). It's stiff and can be
a bit of a pain to work with, but if the price is "right" and the conductor
size ok, go for it! I have three exposed runs of 500 feet on my
Telrex rotors, and its all been working fine for over 25 years. The price:
cost me lunch for three guys.
