Hi;
Sounds like you got the info for Norms rotator service. I was very happy
with them. Remember it was five years ago but I think they have to modify
an existing rotator to use their control box. If you had a rotator you
would have to send them the rotator and control box. You might want to look
at handihams offering but it wasn't as nice just more affordable (cheaper).

Rich, if you can send me the website for Norms Rotator service off list, I'd
appreciate that very much, as I'm am looking into getting a beam up, and
want a solution for a good control box

There are two obvious choices. First of all handihams sells a very
affordable add on that gives you a tone as the antenna turns. Its not my
favorite but quite usable. You might have a look at their web site.
I preferred a rotator sold by norms rotator service which essentially was a
modified rotator with a control box and pointer. You pointed the knob to
the direction of your choice and pressed a button. There was a tone until
the beam got to that point.
Good luck with the tower projects. Buying one can be easier than putting it
up.
Richard
