The rotor control box is not mine to sell. It is the property of the Shelby County Alabama Amateur Radio Club, and was donated from a SK estate. I was considering purchasing the unit when I believed it was part of a complete system. It is the AZ/EL rotor control box only. I believe that the club is asking $200 plus shipping. For more information and an accurate price, please contact their President directly:

I hope the rotor control box finds a good home in the satellite community. See you on the birds!

Les If your looking for a AZ EL rotor, there is an Alfa Spid on ebay now. That has a very good price. This is the same one I have and it, in my opinion, is a much better rotor than the Yaesu. The starting price is about a third of a new one. And they state it's never been outside. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Antenna-Rotator-RAS-1-/190933751489?pt=US_Radio_Comm...

Update on the Yaesu G-5400B rotor. It turned out that only the rotor controller and cable was available. It appears that the rotor itself may have gone with the tower whenever it was disassembled during removal. It's from an estate sale, so hard to be sure. Any value to the rotor controller? Or perhaps someone has the rotor but is in search of a new box? -- -- 73, Les Rayburn, N1LF 121 Mayfair Park Maylene, AL 35114 EM63nf 6M VUCC #1712 AMSAT #38965 Grid Bandits #222 Southeastern VHF Society Central States VHF Society Life Member Six Club #2484 Active on 6 Meters thru 1296, 10GHz & Light _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org <mailto:AMSAT-BB@amsat.org>.
