Fellas,

I haven't been following this thread but I think what you are referring to 
is the shock absorber technique in the mast between the main mast and the 
rotator as described by Dave Leeson, W6NL (ex W6QHS) who wrote Physical 
Design of Yagi Antennas, an ARRL publication.

Hope this helps.

73,

Joe, W1JR
