After contacting a very helpful "Clark Masts" I am told this rotator would not of been made by them. So if anyone could at least identify it, I would be able to research further. Colin.

Mods, maybe the title to this thread "Clarke...." is now misleading?

Well I have the thing on the bench. Checking with an avo I can see it has at least some diodes & capacitors inside. Before I attempt to apply power I want to have a look inside. Please see attached pics. How does it come apart HELP? Colin
