The Art of Rotator Control

 Well,

I watched a video the other day on the TechMinds YouTube channel all about a rotator control board sold by AF6SA.

This neat little board provides a controller for almost any rotator and then allow network control via web or other interfaces - neat!

I ordered one from accross the pond and it duly arrived.

I've put it in a box and set it up to interface to the 6-pin mini-din socket on the back of my Yaesu G-1000-something rotator.

I followed the calibration instructions in the manual and now the display aligns well with the rotator heading... so far so good.

Now to interface to my logging/control software.

More to follow!
