Polor Rotor control?

[mikeydxer]

Does any one know of a stand alone polor rotor controller for the small servo motors on the mechanical feed horns? I have found the older feed horns like the Chaparal works far superior to the electronic feed horns. But I need a way to control the polarity and I don't want to get out the old Echosphere receiver. Any help would be appreciated!!

Some of the older Pansat receivers will control a servo, models 2500 & 3500 maybe?

If you are DIY tech-inclined this thread may give you some ideas:

Also, I saw that Linuxman had some older boxes (small dedicated controllers) that would run the servo.
He's moving, and cleaning out his warehouse, so see the Classified section of the forum, or PM him.
Ask about a "patent-infringing corotor" too, while you are at it.

edit:
I knew he'd sold one of the servo-controllers, but I guess he hasn't officially posted them yet.
Best to PM him.

Thank you soooooo much for connecting me up with him!! I ordered one of his controller and it's on it's way. Thanks again!!!!
