Controlling a rotator via computer can be costly, but a budget-friendly solution exists using an Arduino Nano and free software by Anthony K3NG. This setup allows for easy and enhanced rotator control, including screen and network management. Though initial software setup can be complex, pre-configured versions are available. Building and customizing the hardware interface is required, with comprehensive support provided by K3NG's resources.

This Satellite Antenna Elevation System project involves mounting horizontally polarized Yagi antennas on a fiberglass reinforced polymer (FRP) crossboom. A Yaesu G-800DXA azimuth rotator is in place, requiring only an elevation rotation system. Elevation is controlled by a 12VDC linear actuator connected to a U-bolted arm on the crossboom, rotating within a DIY bearing arrangement. Common handyman tools suffice for assembly. The setup includes FRP crossboom, aluminum tubing, PVC couplers, nylon camshaft bushes, and a K3NG-based controller for azimuth and elevation control. Detailed guides and resources are available online.

The Beam project offers various features for controlling antenna rotators, including support for 2 or 4 line LCD displays, software or hardware clocks, open collector drives for azimuth and elevation control, and internal calculations for tracking the sun and moon. It can also track satellites and supports "Flip Mode" for inverted antennas. The 4-line version provides detailed readouts while the 2-line version offers a more compact display. New versions now support PWM and I2C H-bridge modes for adjustable speed control at the end of a move.
