>  I am having a problem with bench testing a Yaesu G1000 SDX rotor I
> just bought used..  Everything works fine in the CCW direction.
> However in the CW direction, the speed control seems to have no
> effect.  The rotation is at the slowest speed and when I
> stop the rotation, the compass needle jumps back a few degrees.  Also,
> when using preset in the CW direction the control box starts making a
> continuous clicking sound (like a relay) when it comes to the preset
> point.

> Any suggestions on where to look for the cause.
