[amsat-bb] Re: replacement pots

[Alan]

In about 2 weeks I'll have an AZ and EL on the bench and check measurements.

All the bolts on my Yaesu/Kenpro 5400 rotators are metric so the shaft on
the pot may also be metric.

We will see.

I found the pots on the old Kenpro rotors to be none standard.
The mounting hole and the turning shaft are smaller than standard and this
could require some more work to fit a "standard " pot because of the
gearing.
I don't know if this is true for the G5400.
