[TowerTalk] HyGain T-2X

[K9MA]

As my tower replacement project progresses, I opened up the rotator. It 
was working normally before I took it down a few weeks ago, though it 
sounded a bit rough. Inside, though, I found some serious damage to the 
bearing races, primarily indentations. It had been in service for almost 
30 years, inside the tower with a thrust bearing.

There's not much I can do about the bearing races. I'm pretty sure the 
thing will still turn the antennas, though the ride may be a bit bumpy. 
The only alternative is replacing it.  I'm considering just buying a new 
T-2X, but I'm not hearing good things about the current versions. Any 
suggestions?

73,
