FM radio enthusiasts


If you are thinking about putting up a directional antenna array to pull in distant stations, i just ran across a KILLER deal at Rat Shack. They have recently come out with their "new & improved" antenna rotor and as such, are closing out last years model. I was able to pick up a fully functional store demo, which includes the rotor and control box, for $3 at a local store. While most stores will only have one store demo, you might be able to snag it if you get a move on it. Otherwise, you may have to pay a little more for the discontinued but still sealed in box units that may be left in stock. These will work fine for most large directional FM arrays and / or TV antennas. If you are in a very windy area, you might want to compare the brake rating of this rotor with the wind load rating of the antenna that you plan to install. Using a rotor that is not up to the task will result in a lot of frustration. Hope this helps and someone else is able to snag a good deal : ) Sean

Ehart, drop me a line. I may be able to pick one up for you if you don't mind covering shipping. It would still be WAY cheaper than buying the current model rotor. Sean
