[TowerTalk] Rotor control

[Its from Onion]

I have a question that was asked of me and I thought I would put it to the group.

A friend needs to control his rotor from a rather long distance of 750 feet away.
My first thought was ditch the 'traditional' rotor box and just run power to a step-down transformer
of the correct value and use wireless video for a 'spotter' to check direction.
Then I thought, is there a company that builds a digital encoder/decoder for this exact application?
Of course, lighting protection is always a issue.

BTW, thanks everyone on the dipole help.  The wire went up Sunday, but Monday I gave birth
to a 1.2mm bouncing baby kidney stone!  It was my first and, WOW!  Anyway, the dipole is delayed
a bit while I recoup.
Also to answer another question about that antenna, it is for mulit-band use and I live on a hillside
so an inverted 'L' was a no go first off.

Thanks all and  

73,
Lee
