A rotor needs to be able to provide feedback voltage to the controller. This rotor does not.I did see a modification where a person added a 10 turn pot in the rotor motor driven off a gear to provide feedback voltage so the controller knows where the rotor is looking.

Any suggestion on a TV rotor good enough to provide a fixed elevation antenna setup? And that would connect to HRD or SatPC32.
