I'm using a small KR-600 rotator, and the torque isn't always as much as
it needs to be because of the voltage drop along 150ft of cable. (It
isn't a capacitor problem - been there, checked that.)
Does anybody have experience of boosting the voltage at the control box,
to compensate for the voltage drop?
