All Prosistel rotators come with a full TWO-YEAR parts and labour warranty. Which other rotator manufacturer has sufficient confidence in their product to offer that? The answer - None of them!!!!
If you aren't sure of which one is suitable for your application, please contact us, and we will advise. As a guide in areas not subject to severe weather, the PST641 is OK for tribanders like the SteppIR 2el, Cushcraft A3, A4S, MA5-B, HyGain TH3 and TH5, KLM34A, Force 12 C-3S, C3SS, and medium VHF stacks. The PST2051 for SteppIr 3el, Cushcraft X-7 / X-9, Hygain TH7/TH11, KLM34XA, Force 12 C31XR, and larger VHF stacks. PST61 suitable for big monobanders, SteppIr 4 4el, HF/40m stacks, and four-stacks on 6m, 8 yagis on 2m etc. PST 71 is for full-size 40m and 80m yagis, rotating towers, and that 16-yagi array that would make a big noise on 2m EME. If you live in a severe weather area then please take detailed advice from us before selecting a rotator.
