[TowerTalk] OR-2800

[Alberto Perello]

Hello to all,

Since 3 years I'm a successful owner of this rotator (M2/ORION-2800) and
now I 
need advice of the antenna gurus.

Today my antenna system installed (mast + 1 yagi KLM 20M-5) weights 144
pounds. 
I have installed two thrust bearing, but only support lateral forces, not 
vertical force (weight).

I'm planning a new antenna system that weights (mast + 2 yagis) 660 pounds, 
with also two thrust bearing that support lateral forces, not vertical force 
(weight).

My OR-2800 rotator can support this weight with no problems?.

It is advisable install a one of the two trust-bearing to support the system 
weight to help the rotator?.

Thank you in advance for your answer, and seasons greetings from Barcelona.
