All:
I installed a Polyphaser rotator control line protector on my Yaesu
G-2800 rotator and found that the rotor would not work. The rotor
controller spun erratically when I changed heading and the rotor itself
would not spin.
I disconnected the line protector and the problem went away. The
protector is the shunt type 8-wire unit shown here:

The Yaesu rotor uses 6 wires which I connected as per the instructions
leaving 2 terminals free. The protector was grounded and mounted to a
copper plate inside an entrance panel.
The rotator seems to be working fine, but I wonder if I caused any damage?
Any ideas?
Tony
