Hi Bob,
Not sure I can help--but I wonder what interface you're using between SatPC32 and the G-5500?

The 5500 goes up to 450 degrees in az. I use satpc-32, every once in awhile for no "forseeable " reason the rotor will park at 450 degrees. This is not what it is set for. It is a bit concerning as the coax is not the right length for that much rotation and it puts a strain on things. Any ideas?? 73 Bob W7LRD _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
