- Could someone tell me a good place to order 8 conductor wire for 180 foot run. I need at least two of the wires to be 16 gauge. Thanks, Tom N4XVP _______________________________________________ See:

- I have rotor cable like you are looking for. Check out the link below. If you don't see what you need then email me at the office at jeff@waltel.com and I will see what I can do. <http://shop.waltel.

- foot Don't forget --maybe the cable type depends on the rotator system design e.g. the possible need to keep cross coupling from happening between the motor drive current wires and the position sensi

- I guess I would look at this like a coax or cable bundle. Some individually label them, others stripe them, and I'm sure there are other simple methods. Sounds like a nice economic advantage if you d

- It has been decades since I bought actual rotator cable. Typically the motor requires a larger conductor than the sensing wires so I would imagine that actual eight wire rotator cable would have two

- Did u check the wire gauges? If your run is long, you need two motor power wires of larger gauge. I dont know what long is. WL _______________________________________________ ________________________

- FWIW, it's certainly new, but I just read that if you pair two #18 gage wires, you have #15 gage capacity, and if then pair the two #15's, you have #12 gage capacity. Each paring reduces the gage by

- As you can see from the area of the conductor from the chart below, your examples are actually understated, and your conclusion is faulty. Two #18 will give you almost a #12 capacity, rather than #15

- Depends on the rotator. The Hy-Gain rotators (from the old Ham-x variety) require heavier conductors to the motor windings. Are the four conductors of the smaller cable the same size as the larger tw
