I don't know why you guys are getting water in your Tranzeo's boot covers,
I've only had water in 1 out of 350 and that was because I just finger
tightened the screws. I usually never tighten them all the way down just
snug them a little with a socket driver.

Best way...if this wasn't a public list.

We almost left the idea of a WISP behind because every good rainstorm or few
we'd lose a Tranzeo AP.  Water some how managed to get in that stupid bump.

I just threw the last one out a few months ago but it was a priceless image
- we had the pigtail from where it was cut (THANKS TRANZEO), in the plastic
bump sitting in a square puddle of silicon and the crease between
plastic/metal was lined with coax seal.  Took it off after lightning got it
and it was dry!

Lesson - you either die by lightning or water in Tranzeo, never old age =(
