   There's a ham somewhere that got hold of a   
   Naval Battleship rotating gun turret. He mounted   
   directional antennas on the thing for earth-moon-earth   
   and satellite communications. What used to control   
   the azimuth and elevation of the gun barrel now   
   controls the A and E of the dishes and yagis.
