[TowerTalk] Rotator mast mount

[Mike Fatchett W0MU]

The Green Herons will let you set stops.  Put big black lines on the 
display as do not cross lines.  The rotor turns so slow you probably 
would have a tough time damaging the tower but your milage may vary.  I 
love the Green Heron controllers.  They are spendy but turn most any 
rotor out there and fully programmable etc.
