2022.09.26 W0NCW replace rotor cable:




This was my second trip out to this tower. It's a three section powered raise tower, with a tilt-over option
(that the new neighbor has defeated by installing a shed where the beam will tilt over to)

The first visit was to take down a dead rotor, but that changed when I discovered squirrel-chewed controller
cable. He bought some new cable, and I returned after having gotten the rotor connector moved. Then it was
just a quick cable swap and soldering on the controller end. (after feeding it through the wall)
