So what do you do to keep the antenna from spinning out control while the
rotator is removed?

I agree with Larry and many of the others. I have a 24' mast and use
two. I have used two for about 15 years now. I sleep better using two and
the rotor maintenance is now a breeze (and non existent!). With one bearing
at the top, we had to use a come along to get the mast back into the
vertical to mate up with the rotor collar. Not fun....
