[Towertalk] Rotator

I've been using one for nearly a year on a 33' boom 10 element Force 12. It
has not hiccupped even once, yet (knock, knock) and it's been through some
pretty nasty winds. I particularly like it's control box/display much better
than my old Ham IV. If you get one, take the face plate/glass off the
control box, pull the pointer off, and paint the tip of it international
orange. MUCH easier to see than the stock setup.
73, Jerry W5KP
