I made and make the same observation with the KR-600X, the AZ rotor of my
KR-5600A rotor combination. The KR-600X is completely equal with the AZ roto
Hi Erich et al.,
Following suggestion I did the following. Since the rotor goes beyond 180 on
the right side of its travel I let it go until it stopped. I then visually
noted how much beyond 180 it had gone, divided by 2 and brought the dial back
to 360 plus the number just obtained. I then ass

Al,
To eliminate the position pot from the circuit substitute it with
two fixed resistors, ie. 220 Ohm 1/4 Watt. By connecting terminal 2 to 1,
2 to 3 and 2 to the middle point of the to resis
Al;
Did you try the method in the manual first to set the rotor up? I followed the
manual and it worked fine.
