Hi Steve,

Do you have a U.S. distributor or contact for this company?  I've sent them
an e-mail but so far have not received a reply.  I'll try again, but I
really would like to know where one can purchase this.

Subject: Talking Rotator


There is a source for a talking rotator.  From what I recall, it uses the
Yaesu heavy-duty rotor and Box C is the one which talks with it.  The old
ones
with the pointers are fine for light beams such as the Ta33JR but I wouldn't
put a regular sized HF yagi on them.  Also, if you bay a couple VHF yagis
for
2 or 440, I don't know if the aiming would be precise enough as they only
get
around 15 degrees per click.


Anyway, as I said, for a talking rotator, Prosistel makes several models.
They are an
Italian company and the rotators come with different control boxes; Box C is
the talking one.  They are known as "Big Boy" rotators.  Check:
