Don - I am trying to get my old WR-500 Rotor working again [ not sure how old your post is but my rotor will not make the meter work although it still rotates correctly. I believe the position pot is burnt out too.....did you ever find a source for replacement parts for the WR-500 ? I look forward to hearing from you. Eddie KF4LIU

I also need this potentiameter ..and a rotor plug for the rotor side of the cable Pat n2wc

I have a source for the rotor control plug that goes in the rotor.(8pin round screw on )..and I have the pin out for the plug ...have the schematic as well ...still could use the potentiameter for

mail me for info

I also need the female plug for the rotor cable. Would you please email the information for the source to me? Thanks very, very much.

MFJ COULD be the source for that pot

see link for picture of pot

Was this rotator made by Wilson Electronics???

if so; then ask them about any support or parts they may have

You may be so lucky that this was just a repackaged rotator made by some one else
