[TowerTalk] Rotor

[Markhasin, Vitaly]

Use AlfaSpid rotator. It has warm gear drive, no brake needed...
Many useful features in electronics controller (pre-set directions by press
of a button, runs to a set direction by itself (no need to hold a button
while motor is running) etc...
I have two of them. The 3-d is going up this summer. One will replace T2X
that is not happy with long wire runs (some voltage drop...).

I have recently lost 2 Yaesu G800-DXA rotors due to a high wind that 
snapped them and Yaesu said they could be repaired but the cost would be 
too high to make it feasible. What I want to know is who makes a rotor that 
has the best breaking system. I have a Mosley PRO67 with some UHF antennas 
on top and it turns it fine but a 50mph wind last night took it out. So 
some opinions on rotors is solicited. Thanks in advance as may buy one in 
Dayton if I come up with some good suggestions
