The tower won't be tilted at all.  The Yeasu  G-5500 is $530.00, give or 
take...cheaper than the nn4zz  tiltplate!

You missed the point. The tiltplate  will allow the antenna to automatically 
rotate horizontally when  your antenna encounters the roof. Enough to lower 
the tower anyway.  

There is no other ham rotator available that will  do what you ask other than 
the Yaesu. M2 might have one but it'll be lots more  expensive. (They 
announced it several years ago but I don't know about it's  availability.)
