> I recently purchased at a farm auction an antenna rotor with control
unit.
> The control unit has "CDE" printed on the front panel along with
> "transmit/receive direction control".
>
> The panel has a indicator ranging from south to south plus 5
controls
> labeled as follows starting from the top right area of panel.  A
knob with
> "CALIBRATE' above it, to the right another knob with "OFF ON'.
Below these
> two knobs are three more rectangular shaped knobs withe a arrow
pointing
> counterclockwise above the left most control, "BRAKE RELEASE" above
the
> middle control and the extreme right control be low an arrow
pointing
> clockwise.  There is no other labels or markings on this box.  The
rear has

> The accompaning rotor has the following stamped on the bottom on the
outside

the

was good.
