Hello,
I'm Marco, IZ5IOW. I'm searching a good and cheap solution to build an * elevation* system to set up an home satellite station. More specifically I'm looking suggestions for the mechanical part... The loading of the antenna is the follow: 15El UHF Yagi and 9 El VHF Yagi. The mechanical part should not bear too much weight!
Can anyone help me?
Thank you all. Best 73s.
Marco
Hi Marco, IZ5IOW
I believe that the best solution for your needs is to use a KR-500 with his control box because it bear not too much in weight and has a 500 ohm potentiometer into it that can be used in the future for the automatic control of the elevation via your PC.
