Hi all,
The Worcester radio amateurs association are currently on the look out for a suitable rotator that will turn our trusty of Fritzel FD3 tri-band yagi.

Its quite a heavy beastie, so only interested in no TV type rotators

thanks for looking

Hello
I have a complete Yaesu G5500 rotator I wish to sell. It was listed on ebay, unfortunatly the winning bidder was a complete and total waste of time and money. I have been left flabergasted by them, to the point where I have told them to shove it!
Any way not your problem I am sorry.
The rotator is in "Mint" condition, AZ/EL type, also if you are interested I will be passing Worcester on the 12th July on my way to Fairford airshow, this will save a fortune on postage costs, as it is heavy 15Kg.
You do not need to use the elevation part if you don't wish.
I was looking for about £325.00 New they cost £450.00

Hi Andy,
Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like a cracker to me Andy, but we were looking for a straightforward azimuth rotator really. We already have a 5500 for our sat antennas too mores the pity.

I'll bring it up at the meeting tonight anyway, no harm in doubling up I guess.
