Hello Virgilo,
I have a similar set up as you propose using. C-31XR at 58.5 feet and
WARC 2/2 at 70 feet, and Yaesu 2800 rotor. If I were to do it over again,
I would put the C-31 higher - at least 70 feet. However the system works
pretty well even with the C-31 @ 58 feet. The WARC 2/2 works terrific,
although the FB is nothing great, can work anything without amplifier.
Much the same story with the C-31. I use the single feed, and I think the
specs are the same either way.
As for the Yaesu rotor you need to be sure you don't over torque the mast
clam shells, as they break easily. I added the Yaesu shock mount to the
rotor. Mine has been up for three years and experienced one very strong
windstorm where the rotor to mast "pin" sheered in two places allowing
the antennas to free wheel. No other problems encountered.

73,
Frank W9JCC
