Re: Channel Master Antenna Rotor control

[Joel E. <jb...@nc...>]

One more thing.  I changed the name line in lircd.conf from 
Channel_Master_9537 to "rotor" so it was easier to type commands. 
However, you could also change the command in my rotor script to 
Channel_Master_9537.  It occurs in three places.  However, you must do 
either one or the other to make my script and lircd.conf match.
