[TowerTalk] yaesu rotors

[Bob Maser]

Well. my brother has owned 2 Ferraris and they are a nightmare to keep 
running, plus maintenance is very expensive.  I'll take a Porsche over a 
Ferrari any day of the week.
Sorry if I offended some with my comments on Italian made rotors.  It is 
just my humble opinion that I'll take a prop pitch system and pulse counter 
over a pot system.  Plus there is a nostalgic value in thinking that the PP 
I'm using may have been on a bomber that helped us in WWII.
