To be honest I was expecting a rotator for a yagi, a raise/lower, the Diamond K110 does it for me, i know its manual, but it sits nicely on the gutter and can get in the car-parks we have here in the UK which are typically 2 meters 10cm high. I think the motorized is a good idea, but given what I already have (K110), seems alot of time for not so much advantage. Good video tho for thos looking for a motorized antenna who may not already have a mount for /M work.
Does the motor automatically stop if you continue to hold down the up or down button? I’m just curious if this thing is smart enough to know it’s own limits before buying. Thanks for posting!
@@hamradiowithkevin I don’t see it on the description. I’m looking for the longer antenna that u said would bounce and put a hole in your roof. The long silver colored one. Thnx!
I agree with Scooter, please consider making more videos about antenna mounting on an RV. I for one do enjoy these. 73's and Safe travels via N4ZDX
Thanks for the feedback Darrell, I will be working on more of these videos.

I'm running the Comet SBB-5 on my vehicle, it's a great antenna with pretty good performance.
Thanks Michael, yes that antenna is a perfect size to get the job done. Enough so that I own a couple
Thanks! We're trying to mount a Starlink Antenna of 9.2lbs. Looks like you have a beefier motorized mount next the
Great video! I always wondered how that mount worked. 73
Thanks David. 73

Thank you Capt.Jack, Trying something a little new for me.

I'm going to do this with mine! A great idea
Thanks Scooter
@@hamradiowithkevin I think you need to make more videos about mounts and RV's. KF0HRF

You are right, and what a great Idea.
I motorized yagi mount. I might just put one together. A fun project indeed. Thanks
What about a ground plane? Is there a provision for that?
Well, my camper had aluminum sides. However, since the recent crash , I no longer have my camper.

Yes, it does have limit switches for up and down. Very easy to operate
Do you have a link to the 4’ antenna?
Check the description. If that is not the one you are looking for, let me know

I have been trying to find that antenna for you, after my RV crash some things are missing now ;)
