- I have been using an Emotator rotator and 1105MS controller for quite a few years, generally successfully. However, for the past several years it has not rotated when the temperature has dropped belo

- Information on Emotator is very sparce, but this one uses 28V AC and the rotator has two windings with a common point. Voltage is supplied between the common point and either one of the windings. The

- Many thanks to Joe W4TV and Mike W4EF for their most helpful replies. I managed to find about 14uF worth of non-polarised capacitors, so cobbled them all together and connected them across the CW and

- I managed to find about 14uF worth of non-polarised capacitors, so cobbled them all together and connected them across the CW and CCW leads. That's probably not enough to be significant. From an HVAC

- You can make a non-polarized capacitor by connecting two polarized electrolytic back-to-back (negative ends together). As I recall, the overall capacitance will be half of the two caps. 73, Jack, W6F

- Well, now I don't know. I believe that for proper operation the phase in the secondary winding should be 90 degrees different from that in the primary winding, and that the voltage across each windin
