I am trying to make operational an antenna rotated by a HAM-IV rotor. It's a long story but I have lost my documentation telling me which wires went to which terminal up there. I have not sat down with the schematic in front of me to determine if everything can be deduced from ohm meter measurements on the ground. I was using 8 conductor cable, all the same gauge. Two questions: 1. can all the wire placements be determined via ohm meter accurately? and 2. does someone have a link or documentation for the procedure and expected values to do so. Maybe it's a lot easier than I am thinking and should just go find the schematics.
