[TowerTalk] TIC Potentiomenter

[Fred Sanborn]

John,
     The Alfa SPID rotor has several magnets mounted on a large gear 
that is driven by a smaller gear on the motor shaft.  Each magnet swipes 
the reed switch mounted on a nearby bracket giving multiple pulses per 
revolution of the larger gear.  My SPID gives one pulse per degree of 
rotation while some give 2 pulses per degree according to the RT-21 
manual.  The TIC motor / direction assy I have is very similar and that 
is what I had envisioned to try and implement.  I would need to know how 
many ring rotor degrees there are per revolution of the larger gear that 
drives the pot.
