[amsat-bb] Yaesu rotor parts needed

[Mike]

My experience with the L bracket was not good. Bent on me twice.  That rotor became the HamVention Demo rotor.  It’s replacement had the U bracket which is still in service.  Problem will be the elevation rotors that came with the L bracket will not have the holes on the other side for the U bracket.  The pads are there so you might be able to drill, tap and helicoil for the other side of the U bracket.  And if you do will you choose metric or English.  UMMV
