[amsat-bb] bad G-5500 rotor

[Jeff Griffin]

I'm back up here in the frozen north for the holidays and today  had some
time to work on my G-5500's azimuth problem. I took my  5500 control box up
here with me from my station in Florida to help test. Now I've got it down
to the Azimuth rotor itself. I used to have a repair guide for this rotor,
but I haven't worked on one in many years and 2 moves ago and can't find it
anywhere including online. Does anyone have a copy they could email me? I
have the cable disconnected from the rotor control box. I'm interested in
taking some meter readings to try to determine what parts if any to order
from Yaesu. Thanks in advance.

 

Everyone have a very Merry Christmas, happy holiday, and a HNY.
