I was fortunate to acquire a new HyGain rotor box with the LED's added to
the up and down controls and the dial brake, etc. This unit has the newer
connector with the 8-pin plug rather than the screw terminals.
However, when I switched from my older HyGain rotor box, the beam turns
perfectly but the meter does not work. Did HyGain change the Ham IV, etc.
rotors, that is, the internal pot inside the rotor now has some other kind
of device that changes the resistance inside the rotor box control.
Unfortunately, I did not get the manual for the HyGain control box.
I may have to go back to my older HyGain control box.
Thank you
