I got the ECUs and controller back today. I was a little confused when I opened the boxes because the ECUs were open and there was a cover and gasket included along with 25 feet of wire and some coax seal in the box with the controller.
It seems that they forgot to include the hardware to close the ECUs and also the instructions on how to wire them up. My old ones were prewired and closed.
They are going to zip me out the hardware kits and also an instruction sheet on how to wire them up. The lead wire sits in the groove along the radius of the housing.
A couple of pictures attached:
This is how they come in the box. The cover and gasket are not shown. The hardware should have been in the open space.
Here's a close up of the workings. You can see how the two tapes are feed from the reels out to the elements. Also a closer view of the terminal block and groove that the lead wires go to in order to feed out to the terminal box on the boom. This part is all new to me as all the old ECUs had gray housings and each one had about a 10 foot lead on it. If you look closely at the upper right hand corner of the photo those heavy copper wires go to the female "N" connector. where the coax attaches. I'll bet that heavy, (looks like ferrite), thing is a balun of some sort. The other ECUs don't have this and can be either the director or reflector. The actual motor that drives the reels is under the white plate.
Still shooting for the weekend to get back on the air.
