Ordering a new rotator this week...

Well as some may know, i got myself a new antenna some months ago.
The 4elm ZX-Yagi is laying in the garage, just to be placed on the roof.
So a new rotator i needed, the one in use atm (the baby G250) cant handle the ZX.

So the last months some money was saved, and the choice has fallen on the Yaesu G1000... Sooo now the only thing is, to rebouild the antenna from the 12meters to 11meters band...

More to come on the antenna job. May need some help on this one.. ;)
