Default TV problem

One of the most common problems with ratators is that the mast clamps
aren't tightened sufficiently and they eventually work free. Align
the rotator to North, aim the antenna north and run a self tapping
screw through the back plate and mast.



Great, as long as some stations aren't almost due north, causing you
to run the rotor from end to end to move a couple degrees. I used to
install them facing east, where there were no local stations. The old
Alliance U98 or U100 rotors have a dial that could be rotated. The CDR
AR22 did the same thing.
