Hi all,
I've trying to rotate a 20M home made Magnetic loop using an old yaesu rotator. Unforntunately, it hasn't got the manual or 5 core cable & the two connecting plugs with it. I also understand that although the rotator shaft goes around, the direction pointer does not. (Possibly transistor drivers?) I can't find any schematics on the 'net and was hoping that someone on this newsgroup might have some info that at least would let me connect up the five wires to the connectors to check out its operation. I think other models may be similar. The rotator body has a seven pin plug and there's a six pin chassis mounted socket on the rear over the main controller unit. regards, Roger G7JAQ England. ---------------------------------------------------- This mailbox protected from junk email by Matador from MailFrontier, Inc. http://info.mailfrontier.com |

Roger,
I have the G1000. It requires a 6 conductor cable. When you rotate the antenna clockwise, that is approach S from E, the indicator does not stop on S. It will go all the way to W if you have enough slack. If nobody comes up with a web address for you, I can scan in the connection info for you. You can email me at my call letters dot arrl.net.
