Default yaesu G-1000sdx rotator

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

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.
