Spid RAS rotor issue
I’m having a problem with my RAS rotor at my winter home. When I turned it on yesterday, after an absence of about 2 months the elevation went into a complete backflip when powered up, and is jammed against the roof with an elevation reading of 195 degrees on the control box. I’m at my Florida home for just a few weeks to do some fishing, so before starting to work on it to maybe speed up the repair process a bit I’m asking here if anyone else had this problem. When the roof dries off I plan on going up there and remove the antennas before trying to move the rotor, to diagnose. Right now the azimuth will turn, but the elevation is stuck, it wont move up or down. I’m hoping it is just jammed into the roof, once unstuck hopefully all it would need is a re-calibration. Thanks for any useful information....
