 The G-5500 is a common rotator for amateur radio AZ/EL applications. The SatNOGS client interfaces with this rotator via the hamlib library. While a commercial computer interface is available from Yaesu, the SatNOGS project provides an open hardware design that is much cheaper.

	The SatNOGS Client uses [http://hamlib.sourceforge.net/ hamlib] to speak to a rotator. With this, we are able to support almost any commercially available rotator, and have the flexibility to support home built rotators that implement protocols like [https://www.mustbeart.com/software/easycomm.txt EasyComm] or Yaesu GS-232.

		+	In this [https://wiki.satnogs.org/Review_of_Commercial_Rotator wiki page] you could read a review about the AZ/EL rotators, which are popular in HAM community.

	If you would rather start with a stationary antenna setup (no rotator), see our [[Omnidirectional Station How To\|omnidirectional guide]].		If you would rather start with a stationary antenna setup (no rotator), see our [[Omnidirectional Station How To\|omnidirectional guide]].
