I think it roughly equivalent to Leeson's book recommendation except that
Leeson used a BMW part. Or was it Lawson's book?

Right, I think they are a shock absorber so if you let go of the brake too
soon it won't slam the rotator, also to help prevent shock loading due to
gusty winds. I think. Seems pretty pricey for two stamped plates and four
polyurethane bumpers, though.

I am looking to buy a GA-3000 Tower Absorber made by Yaesu. I can not
find
anyone to sell this item. It is pictured at
http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/hamrot/ysurot.html in Universal
Radio
web site. Has anyone ever used this item? Does anyone sell a similar
item??
What is it? It appears to be a rotator mounting plate or adapter plate to
fit a particular rotator to a specific tower. If so, couldn't you take the
dimensions to a local machine shop, or does it have some torsional
absorption properties as the name would imply?
Have you tried Texas Towers? I doubt they'd stock them, but might be willing
to order one. HRO?
A bit of searching turned up
http://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-002771
watch out for line wrap.
They do show in stock.
73 es good luck
