[Elecraft] Remote Tuning for the Alexloop

[sancho]

Hi Ted,

I remember that he experimented with a remote that was basically a stepper motor that had a reduction gearing and range control switching to prevent running past the stops. IIRC don't think he was entirely happy with the results but it worked. He doesn't mention it as a product.

Write him at the email on his web site and you will get an answer. He is a nice guy and will probably point you to possible solutions.

But I could not find the remote for sale on his website, nor any other mention of it other than a few Internet comments about a prototype.  Does anyone know if it ever came into production?  In the video it looked like a finished product.
