[TowerTalk] Quiet antenna rotators?

Question: is the noise made by a HAM-series rotator excessive or 
unreasonable?  It is not silent, but I don't think it's excessive or 
unreasonable.  It's certainly not as loud as starting your car.

Perhaps one could begin cutting one's grass at 7am and when THAT complaint 
came in, it would be an easy negotiation - "I'll wait until later in the 
morning to cut my grass if you'll quit complaining about the sound of my 
rotator."

Neighbors.  Sheesh.
