Yaesu G-2800DXC azimuth rotor the newest top-of-the-line rotator is for extra-heavy-duty antenna installations. It includes “Auto Slow Start” and “Auto Slow Stop” features to avoid sharp jolts to the antenna array and tower. The G-2800DXC includes a rugged mast clamp. The rotor comes with a control unit equipped with preset and variable speed control. Total rotation range: 450°.
We recommend: Buy a rotator always one size larger than actually needed! Moreover, rotators and antenns are specified for a setup to a height of 18 meters above ground level. Over 18 meters, an additional load of 1 kgf / m (= 0.1 N / m) is to be added.

Yaesu supplies the rotators without connectors and control cable.
Choose one of the connectors/cables below:
- Special connector set for both rotator and control unit
- Control cable 6-wire can be ordered per meter
- Yaesu control cable incl. connectors assembled; length 25 m.
At great length of control cable voltage drop will occur and the motor becomes less powerful or will not start up at all. The gauge of the 7 wire cable to connect the control unit to the rotator depends upon the distance between the rotator and control unit. The longer the distance, the larger the diameter of the wire required.
To prevent interference in the control / display, control cable of rotors with preset / speed control circuitry from acting together with coaxial cable you should separate control cable at a distance of 20 cm when transmitting power is over 500 W.
a distance of 20 cm when transmitting power is over 500 W.
