What does addx mean?
A common indicator problem with Yaesu rotators is moisture inside the round
connector. The boot alone does not provide sufficient protection from the
elements.

I have  friend  K7QYY  ( email addx in qrz is OK ) with a G800 that started
acting like this ;


Watching the antenna -if he rotated it to say - - north (or any other
direction)  it would go there but when he released control the indicator
would continue moving about another 30 deg (ant standing where it was when
he released the switch) 





Then today it quit any direction indication at all  but ant still will
rotate. 



I found a little info in a groups.io discussion but thought maybe someone
here has idea or a place to go to ??
