| Is it important or helpful to fill the control cable connector that plugs
into the rotator with dielectric gel (such as Dow Corning) to prevent water
intrusion?
 
I understand that if I ever had to repair the soldered connectors inside
(extremely unlikely) that the goop would be a pain.  But other than that, is
there any downside?  Or is it complete overkill?
 
Rotator is Yaesu G-1000DXA but I would think this question applies to any
rotator connector.
 
Thanks in advance,

Michael - N6MEF
