I have used several different rotator control boxes, and the best TV type
box is the one that has a pointer knob control. You simply point the pointer
where you want the beam to go and it goes there and shuts off. Straight up
is north, 90 degrees left is west; 90 degrees right is east, and obviously,
the 6:00 position is straight south. You can guestimate from those
positions, e.g. north-east, etc.

Good evening:
I just made a contact here in my state on one of my local repeaters, = thats
offered me a cushkraft 10- element beam antenna.
Model number
A14-10s I think it was and he said I would need a tv rotor because the = one
he had for it quit working.
do any of you guys have any experience with rotors. it seems like I've =
heard they have modified some rotors so that you would know which way = your
antenna is pointing.
Any Ideas?
Thankyou.
