Re: [amsat-bb] mounting a u-110 elevation rotator

[whtaylor1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Carl, I just used a piece of 1/4" aluminum plate, drilled 8 holes and mounted two pairs of U-bolts, one on each side of the plate.  The bolt pairs are oriented 90 degrees to each other.  Almost takes more time to describe than to build!

Good luck!
