[Hammarlund] Yaesu Rotor Problem

The cable that I used was a pretty good quality cable
that was sold by Motorola for use with their two-way
system desk sets.  It is still very pliable except
where I had to splice it due to a squirrel making a
meal of that section!  However, having lasted 40 years
I believe that the cable is ready for retirement!

I need to look around in my "stash".  I believe that I
have 100 feet of suitable cable that should be brand
new.  100 feet will get me from the rotor across the
"overhang" on the back of my house and down to the
control box.  I didn't plan it that way, but 100 foot
lengths of Heliax gets from the top of my tower to a
point that is about 2 feet inside the ceiling of my
shack.  Then I use RG213/U for jumpers to my antenna
switches.
