[amsat-bb] AZ EL Rotator

[Ed Cunningham]

Hi All,

 

Being out in the summer sun in Phoenix AZ is not fun, I, like others, am
looking for an inexpensive way to set up an AZ EL rotator.  Being retired I
have time to work on it, but being retired, the funds are limited.  I have
found several articles using servos, cnc motors, U110 rotators etc.  Has
anyone used successfully used a security rotator like a Pelco Pan Tilt head?
I found one article on it and am looking for more information.  It seems
like a simple way to go if it can be done. Any information for or against
would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks,

 

Ed, N7EC
