Antenna Rotator Assembly
Periodically someone is looking for a replacement for the flying saucer tv
antennas that graced some of our wanderlodges. I replaced mine last June with I believe the original manufacturers, (many may dispute this), dish. I'm doing taxes and the invoice came up so I figured I'd save someone the time it took me to track down the unit. I got it from; Antennacraft PO box 848551 Dallas, Texas, 75284-8551 the assembly information on the invoice is: 5MS750A ANTENNA/ROTATOR ASSY 5MS750 $85.95 It cost $11.75 to ship to the east coast. As I recall they had just made a number of these and had a few in stock. It was an exact replacement for my other antenna. The old one had rubbed the styrofoam so that it was very loose and would not rotate. It also had loose wires and probably the board was fried after I tried to solder some connections. The new one works great. Maybe this will help someone in need of a replacement Bob Benner 86PT40 flying back to Inverness Fla on Sunday, (it's cold on LI right now) |

That would be new old stock at the time it was purchased that particular model has not been produced since 2003 The company that produced these for Antennacraft closed in either 2003-or 2004 they were located in North Carolina The replacement model is 5MS9000 and the list price is $184.95 plus shipping as listed on Antennacraft's site. They can be purchased elsewhere for less than the oem list price.
