If you believe in the "belt and suspenders" approach, you can get sealing nuts for the threaded end of the connectors. I use these plus a dab of silicone grease.

I'm in the process of installing a receive 4 square for 160 using F type connectors and high quality flooded RG-6. Do these things need additional weatherproofing? As I recall all the many cable TV installations I have had over the decades, done by major cable and satellite companies, none have been weatherproofed. If its good enough for those guys, at those frequencies, shouldn't it be good for us at 1.8 MHz? 73, Larry K4AB _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
