[WT-support] WT and Rotators

[Lorenz Grassl]

Hi from Germany,

a few weeks ago I participated in "Marconi-Contest VHF". Unfortunately I 
had troble to run my 2nd rotator with WT.

Here´s my setup:
Radio 1 is a TS-850 (for all HF), radio 2 a FT-100 (for all VHF/UHF). I 
run two Yaesu G-1000 rotators - rotator one turns my hexbeam (HF), 
rotator 2 turns all VHF/UHF-antennas. Both rotators are controlled by 
one interface, the really perfect ERC-M by DF9GR. The interface requires 
only one COM-Port for both rotators. I run e.g. LOGGER32, which is able 
to control both rotators with this one interface. That means: in 
LOGGER32 I can use rotator one (radio 1) AND rotator two (radio 2) with 
the same COM-port. Unfortunately the rotator-control in WT is not that 
"up-to-date" or: "wt-rotators" is not able to have a case like this 
configured.

Is there a chance that this will be possible with wt-rotators for the 
next contest-season in 2025? I´m sure I´m not the only one who has this 
conditions at his station. I asked this previously in March 2022 (18. 
and 20.) but there unfortunately was no response from the programmers. 
Maybe meanwhile there´s a change of mind concerning this?
