back to 2023.10.15 W0NCW tower and cable repairs

2023.10.18 reconnected repaired control cable:




Back out to reinstall the rotor control cable after having repaired the end. Plugged in, tested, tied back,
strain-relieved, weatherproofed, and final test.

This will get the rotor working for now. I'll probably be back out in a few days to install some split loom
over the coax and control cables running over the garage roof to discourage the squirrels.

When spring rolls around, I'll be back out to swap the coax and rotor cable for brand new.


1 new control cable connected

2 thrust bearing weather cover

3 cable strain relief

4 connector mastic

5 final antenna check

6 powered tower lift
