I am going to buy a rotator soon for a DPD MilTenna 220-400 UHF and wondering if anyone has good/bad experiences with these? I see everything from the cheap Magnavox, Channel Master models to $800 Yaseu's.
I would really like to find one that I can interface in to my computers to control - the Yeasu has an add-on for this but it looks like obsolete and limited use. I did see some software but the controllers they work with are more than the rotators.
I am surprised there's no software to just click on Google Earth/Maps and have an interface/controller rotate the antenna to that direction. Would just be a matter of passing the coords to the controller?
Anyway - appreciate any input!
Thanks
