Thanks all that replied.
Yes, it was the elevation rotor pot. Just have to get it back up on the
mast since tests in the shack now look good.

How Things Work.
TURN to Page 9, schematic diagram
Meters M1 and M2 are analog meters in the Control Box.
Potentiometers VR5 and VR6, located INSIDE the outside rotator and geared to
motor
movement, changes resistance -- which is measured and reported on the meters
M1 and M2.
Dirty or failing potentiometers are common, and required maintenance
with heavily used antenna rotators.

Hello,
I was just wondering if the 4M mission's orbit could be simulated using
g3ruh's Cowell integrator,
provided that orbit injection state vectors were available...
I've found some videos (luxspace cloud) with this simulation and I was
wondering
if I could do the same...
Can anybody help ?

I'm packing up stuff from the Ocean View property and ran into a packet of
photos Bill W0oqc SK had sent me from the 1998 Symposium. What a blast from
the past. Pics of W0oqc, W0sat, N8ocx,
Ki0ag,N7sfi,W5iu,K5vas,Wd5gqm,Kb1sf,W3xo,Wd5gqm,K5nrk. Such great memories
of the morning Breakfast club on the FOO birds, FO20, and FO29 with most of
these guys and more. Very fond memories..

Mine appears to a bad connection on the tower. When I rotate to the east,
the elevation meter jumps. When I rotate back to the west the elevation
returns to normal. Now I have to find the time to tilt the tower over and
repair it.
