Dear All,
I have a Yaesu G-5500 rotator set with the azimuth rotor being faulty. I have not got the time to open up and check that yet.
However, it appears that the azimuth rotor of the G-5500 is similar (or
the
same?) as that of the Yaesu G-800. I would be glad if anyone could kindly advice if the G-800 rotor will replace the G-5500 azimuth rotor well? And will the G-5500 control box be able to control it?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Sion, 9W2QC
There are several models into the G-800 family : G-800 S , G-800 SA , G-800 SDX , G-800 DXA and they are electrically different.
Which of these models are yours ?
