Charles,

You can not go wrong by over-engineering this component-  The M^2 Orion 2800 can 
literally turn a house without breaking a sweat, and the service and personal attention 
from the M^2 folks in Fresno is unequalled.  My Orion turns a 3 el KLM 40 M beam plus 
a KLM KT34XA, a 13 el 2M yagi, and a WRAC rotatable dipole with absolutely no 
trouble even in big winds.  Computer control of this beast is easy and flawless.

73 and GL,

Craig
