[Towertalk] T2X buzz on brake release

[ldennis@mediaone.net (L. Dennis Shapiro)]

People,

My T2X (bless the dang thing) has developed a buzz-saw
noise at the rotator when the release button is
pressed on the control.

DC resistance of the brake loop consisting of the
solenoid winding and the cable wires at the control is
2.2 ohms (when disconnected from the control box).

AC voltage to the soleniod loop is 31.5 open circuit
and 26.8 with the loop connected when the release is
pressed.

Anyone seen this?  Suggestions?

Dennis, W1UF
