Any Hy-gain Tailtwister guru's lurking about?
My meter doesn't display direction any more and I'm trying to figure out
where I should be looking--control box or inside rotator. Everything else works fine; rotator turns; break works; lights light; etc. The fuse inside the control box was blown. I replaced it--still no meter indication. Anyone have any ideas? tnx |

If you mean does it indicate at all: When I turn the contol box on the
needle moves to the extreme right position and then falls back slightly. If I turn the calibration adjustment the needle moves. It just won't track with the rotator. "Harold E.

Can I test for either one of these conditions from shack-end of the control
cable? "You" wrote in message ...
