[TowerTalk] Yaesu G800 rotators

The handbook for the G-1000 mentions a mechanical stopper, but doesn't
explain how this is achieved.

The G-1000 DXC has variable speed, so if you are minded, you can start and
finish rotation slowly, but for true slow start and stop you need to move up
to the G-2800.

Hi all,

I wonder if someone can answer this question, because the schematic and the
manual don¹t seem clear on the issue: is there a mechanical braking system
of some kind on the G800 or G1000 series of rotators?

If yes, is there a built-in gentle stop system like the brake delay mod for
the Ham-IV?

Thanks

Kelly
