- Testing a rebuil SteppIR EHU before installation. The original EHU had a broken reel shaft. Instead of waiting on parts from SteppIR, took the insides of a 2010 model which was damaged in Hurricane Isaac and installed it inside the shell of this 2012 model.
Test setup includes the EHU, a SteppIR SDA 100 controller and a SteppIR connector box. This test was successful.
I really do not have the words to express my feelings about this
I really am glad I do not own it !
I am new to Stepp IR. I bought a BIG Stepp IR Mark IV vertical and I am seeing a lot of grief from owners having bad issues with all of this mechanical stuff. I get it that a YAGI benefits from all of these adjustable parameters BUT I read on one forum that these things are night mares to keep operating. I hope my simple Vertical antenna application is free of defects. What are most of the failure points from this design? Bad design? cheap stepper motors? too much plastic? I realize metal is a no-no because of the presence of RF.
To many moving parts in these antennas.
It's too noisy. My neighbours would freak if I put one of these up. Which sucks because I really want one.
