Hammond'; [email protected]; 'i8cvs'\nSubject: [amsat-bb] Re: Yaesu G-5500 azimuth and elevation resistor pots\n\nThe pots are the same as the G5400b AZ and EL - 500 ohm 360 degree.\n\nThey are also metric but if a suitable wire wound precision pot is found\nthere is sufficient material in the gear hub to be drilled out. The Allen\nscrew is also metric. 1.5mm Allen key required\n\nSee URL below for some close ups of the G5400B - similar to the 5500 except\nfor location of the phasing capacitor and limit switches in the AZ.\n\nhttp://picasaweb.google.com/ve4yz.alan/RotatorRebuild2009# \n\nIf a sealed precision wire wound pot can be found that does not have that\nlimiting looping wire to the center, I would be interested in a group buy to\nhave one or 2 spares on hand for the next rebuilt and greasing.\n\nDomenico gave me part numbers last year but when I got a quote they were\nhugely expensive but they fit my requirement of total enclosed, wire wound\nand precision.\n\n>From a Sept 2008 email from Domenico:\n\nHere are many wire wound linear potentiometers that can be adapted.\n\nhttp://www.potentiometers.com/select_precision.cfm?session_num=2008091501464\n233\n\nThe models belove seems to be the best candidates because they are totally\nencapsulated wirewound and 360° continuous rotation.\n\nhttp://www.potentiometers.com/Series5100.cfm?session_num=2008091501464\n\nhttp://www.potentiometers.com/Series5400.cfm?session_num=2008091501464\n\n\n\n\n\n\n> -----Original Message-----\n> From: [email protected] \n> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark L.
