[TowerTalk] Yaesu Rotor/Bearing

[Mike Bragassa, K5UO]

I think these types of rotors; very much like the Create rotors which are worm-gear driven,  requires that the vertical loads be put on the rotor and not relieved by a bearing. Confirm that in your manual.

Hello.
Can the Rohn AS25G accessory plate be cut easily and with what type of saw?
Without sacrificing strength can a Yaesu rotor GS-450 be mounted on a cut plate? I will be using a thrust bearing (TB3) for the vertical load.  Does the AS25G accommodate the Yaesu rotors without having to re-drill mounting holes?
Thanks
