First, I wouldn't worry about a swinging gate hitting a tower leg. It'll just
stall the rotator, which is no worse than having a stuck break wedge.
If you want to prevent it, I'd suggest a getting a rotor control kit. I wrote
an article in QST about the 'Rotator Pal'', and there's the RotorEZ from
Idion Press. I'm sure it's easy to modify the preset pot to limit max
rotation limits.
