[TowerTalk] Rotor tip

[Dale L. Martin]

Hi, Jeff.

I put molex plugs in place years ago.  They are available at most
electronic parts outlets, even Radio Shack.

Now that the Amp connector seems to be the connector of choice
for the rotator, maybe that same connector should be used
instead.  Does anyone on the reflector have any insight as to
whether the Amp connector I received from C.A.T.S. is becoming a
"standard" connector for the rotator?  Are there others being
used/promoted?

As for the double female bulkhead plug, I don't think I have ever
seen one.  You might just consider hardwiring the cable from the
rotator to a male bulkhead connector (The connector from the
control box would be a female, preserving hiding the hot
connector pins).
