[TowerTalk] T2X rotor stuck

[john at kk9a.com]

If you rebuild your station, I would consider using a rotator without a
brake. There are less things to go wrong and you need less conductors
running all the way to your tower. I have not used a rotator with a brake
in decades and I have no issues with large Yagis staying in position.

Hi Matt,

Not sure what version I have.  Mine worked for years flawlessly.  Then I was
gone for two years and when I got back it hangs up.

I am always able to get it unstuck but its a hassle.  I want to convert it
to a
point a shoot system where I turn a dial and the rotor goes to where I
tell it
without me having to press any more buttons.  Doesn't really matter now as I
took a new job and will be taking it all down to move.  I can make my
improvements on the next station.
