Hi Bill,

Im running the alfaspid in my LM470 crankup, fits nice and works 
perfect, its turning a Hygain 205ca. Im also using another alfaspid(on 
a free standing tower) to turn about the same size antenna you have 
there. Your most limiting factor for the rotor selection will be the 
width spacing at the rotor plate on the 589 or 689 tower. I wished I 
had your antenna, hihi...

Hello Tower Talkers:

I have a Steppir Monstir antenna (Love it by the way).

It has a Wind Surface Area of 23.9 square feet.

I am currently using a hy-gain TailTwister rotor (rated at 20 square 
feet).

I would like to replace the TailTwister rotor with one that has ample 
design
margin.

The rotor will be mounted in a US Towers 589 or 689 as soon as I can
purchase a used one (any leads on this would also be appreciated!).

73,

Bill Erickson
