I use the same rotor. It quit after a few years. Turned out that water got in through the locations where the control cables connected. After removing and drying out, all worked. I covered the rotor with a plastic container and no water can get in. I doubt that causes the Comm port error.

Tnx for the reply folks. I using the Kenpro G5400a rotor system and noticed my “elevation” rotor has stopped working. Wonder if this has anything to do with it?. It’s getting pretty old. so in the spring, I’m going to buy a new satellite rotor setup. 73 de Scott VE6ITV _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
