[TowerTalk] Rotator Choice for Larger Yagi

[Dan Cisson]

The M2 2800 has turned a 65 ft boom full size 20 monobander for me
FLAWLESSLY !!!
Highly recommend it !! I bet you can find a deal on one at Dayton in a few
weeks !!  GL  Dan N4GNR

I'm with Jerry on recommending the M2 OR2800.
The Green Hornet RT-21 you have will work beautifully with it, (better 
than the M2 controller)
Look at it on the DX Engineering web site.  ( I am not affiliated with 
DX Engineering :-)
