TT:

     I bought similar 8-prong connectors from The Wireman.  Three sets:  at
the rotator, inside the shack and at the base of the tower (so I can bring
the control unit outside and watch the rotator while someone aligns the
Yagi's etc.)  I got that tip from TT a few years ago.

     RF Connections carries 8-prong connector sets that look similar to
those sold by The Rotor Doctor, except they don't replace the screw terminal
strip - they're outboard connectors, so you'll still have to use the screw
terminals.  www.therfc.com  .
