[UK-CONTEST] What rotator

[John Lemay]

Hello Jim

I wonder if your first list included rotators from Alpha Spid ? They produce
some quite meaty engineering.

I only have experience of one of their elevation rotators, which I'm using
on my 2m EME array without problems.

Subject: [UK-CONTEST] What rotator

I am trying to decide on a new rotator to replace my old Tailtwister T2X.

The T2X has too much slop / backlash.

I have a new Optibeam on the tower and with the T2X is twists about too much
for my liking.

 

So far I have narrowed it down to 3 options

 

Cheapest is the Yaesu 2800 

Next would be the Prosistel PST 61

The most expensive would be the M2 Orion 2800 (no drilling of the head unit
required as the same bolt pattern as the T2X)

 

Be interested to hear some opinions on any of the above.

They would be fitted on a Versatower H3R headunit.
