BTW, the Yaesu G-550 is the current production of the Elevator rotator (KR-500). http://www.yaesu.com/downloadFile.cfm?FileID=968&FileCatID=155&FileN...
MAJORITY of Repairs to G-5500 Azimuth-Elevation rotators are with the Elevation Rotator (G-550). This is due to location (top of stck) and water penetration (seals).
