The Orion 2300 came to me as part of a package deal with an HDX-555. I hope to
get the tower standing up sometime this summer. I haven’t tested the rotator,
but even if it does work, I wouldn’t want to get everything up in the air only
to have a failure in a week or a month. I have no idea about how to service or
lubricate it. I’ve been advised to get a Green Heron controller for it, but
even at that, I still need to get a clean bill of health on the mechanical part
of the rotator.
Should I try to have it serviced, or should I opt for a complete replacement—
possibly with a different model or brand? Is there even anyone who services
these?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or advice.
73,
Sam - W5KF
