Hiya, Dick --
    Correcto mundo. They are the best.

    I have a chapter devoted to rotators in my UP THE TOWER book where I have a 
chart of rotator specs, with the PP having the highest rotating and brake 
torque. Just looking at those 2 specs, two of the TIC Ringrotors are next 
followding by a Big RAK Alfaspid followed by a Prosistel 71D. Anyway, there are 
28 rotators listed and they all have their good points and some negatives.

    Among my personal favorites are the M2 Orion (with a Green Heron control 
box and Champion Radio Products mast clamp - NOT the factory stuff) and the 
Yaesu 2800.

    The whole book is available from championradio.com.
