I'm installing a 60ft tower about 400ft from my house for uhf/vhf. I'm
planning to use a Channel Master rotor which I haven't purchased yet. I've
buried 1"pvc conduit to tower and planning the wire pull for the antenna &
satellite coax plus the rotor cable. From my research 3c/22ga. wire will
control all C M rotors. Since I don't know the power requirements yet of
the un-purchased rotor I can't calculate the voltage drop on appx. 500ft
of 22 ga wire to see if it will be sufficient. Can somebody either reply
with the typical C M rotor current/voltage/watts or first hand knowledge
of the correct wire gauge for a 500ft run. Thanks Jeff


I wonder if a larger conduit would be desirable for a larger diameter
co-axes, else the losses might be
unacceptable and to fit all these cable in - is it OK to run these so
closely together over such a long distance ?
