Has any one had any sucess at installing there own electric lift
mechanism for the MA550?
US Tower wants almost $1000 for their MD75 motor drive, seems a bit
heavy and I was looking for a lower cost alternative.  To keep peace in
the family and neighborhood I need to lower the antenna during the day
and hand cranking the MA550 is not exactly a chore I look forward to on
a daily basis.
