The tower won't be tilted at all. The Yeasu G-5500 is $530.00, give or
take...cheaper than the nn4zz tiltplate!
You missed the point. The tiltplate will allow the antenna to automatically
rotate horizontally when your antenna encounters the roof. Enough to lower
the tower anyway.
There is no other ham rotator available that will do what you ask other than
the Yaesu. M2 might have one but it'll be lots more expensive. (They
announced it several years ago but I don't know about it's availability.)
