can help me decide what is a good choice for a rotor to use with my
Force 12 C4SXL. I will be putting it on a TRI THD-588 so a tailtwister
will not fit inside my tower.
Looking of a budget solution rotor also
Did you miss the discussion in the last couple of days on rotator
capacity? Check the archives at _www.contesting.com_
(http://www.contesting.com)
for the archives if so.
Use the Yaesu K-Factor or Hy-Gain Effective Moment (same thing -
weight times turning radius) to come up with a suitable rotator. It's always
better to get a little bit bigger rotator so it won't be working as hard.
