Re: VECTOR: Omega Race Spinner

Here's an email I sent to Vectorlist about a year ago.

-----------------------------
I just got my 10k potentiometer in the mail today from Mouser.  It works
perfectly.   You do have to adjust the two pots on the encoder board to get
a smooth motion all the way around.  Mine stuck a little bit at the 3
o'clock position, but now it's pretty good.

So, for anyone that wishes to do the same - the mouser part number is
652-6639s-1-103
--------------------------

Hope that helps.

Matt
