Default Yaesu Rotor chattering


"Rick" wrote in message

Any idea what causes my Yaesu G-1000 rotor control box to chatter or
buzz after the rotor comes to a stop? This happens if it is rotated
to a position using the automatic feature (where you set a position
and hit a button and the rotor goes there and stops).
It's as if the rotor might be moving back and forth at a high rate,
and the controller is trying to correct for it.

if its only when using the preset feature then its likely the circuit that
nulls the voltage difference between the pot in the rotor and the preset pot
in the control box. just press the rocker switch and it should stop.
