i.e. one or two of "...these kinds of problems." out of hundreds/thousands 
of no-problem cable runs!

I, too, was aghast when I discovered my newly purchased Orion rotator counts 
pulses instead of using a feedback pot and until I replaced the cable with 
coax the system frequently lost position.  However, doesn't airline inertial 
navigation systems use the same technique between recalibrating at known 
waypoints?
