This might be a silly question, because I'm not familiar with the Ham IV -
but how do you avoid having a senior moment and trying to rotate it too far
?

Subject: [TowerTalk] Rotator mast mount


Anyone have any recommendations for mounting a Ham IV atop a 2" mast
section.    I'm building a standoff mount on one of my towers for a 3
element SteppIR.   I've got some 2" angle iron that I'm going to bolt in
place of 2 sets of steps on my AB-105 tower.   This will allow for about a
4' piece of mast held about 10-12" from the tower.   
 
Now I just need to track down a mount for the Ham IV.   I should get about
100 degrees or so of azimuth.   Together with the 180 feature of the SteppIR
it should do the trick for JA/CA mults and for keeping the US off my QRG
when I've got the big boys pointed at EU.
 
Any thoughts?
 
73,
