[TowerTalk] Antenna Rotator

Hello,

I am looking for a replacement for my HyGain T2X. The T2X is on a
70 foot Glenn Martin tower with the Voyager tram system. The position
pot has failed and  during windy conditions the antenna (Tennadyne T-12)
will not turn. The Glenn Martin Co. recommended the T2X for my application
with their tower and the T-12 LPA, but the rotator is not up to the job. 
I have used
some other models of HyGain rotators in the past with other antennas and 
on every
one of them the position pot failed sooner or later (mostly sooner). I 
thought that maybe
the T2X would be "better".

Any recommendations for a well designed, strong and reliable rotator system
would be appreciated.

Thanks and 73 de Joe, W6RLL
