[TowerTalk] Ham IV rotor - to service or not to service?

[Gary Slagel]

Thanks to all for the comments on the rotor.  Sounds like I'd better spend the bux and get it in for service.  I'm sure its a fairly easy project for a DIYer but I'd just as soon have a pro look at it and figure that I've done all I could for the thing.
 
Thanks again.

sized tribander on a crank up tower.  I'm wonder if I should just put it up
or should I send it in for a 'tune up' with a rotor service company? 
The thing seems to be working fine but wondering if I'd have a better chance
of getting another 10 years out of it if I had some routine maintenance done on
it?
