As I am sure many will tell you. try this: get the eight wire "trailer"
connector (sold at least by THE WIREMAN) and make up a pigtail from the
rotor screw terminal strip to the male end of this water resistant
connector. Then, your upcoming rotor wire terminates in the female
trailer connector. That gives you room to install the wires on the
terminal strip and coat the strip with water resistant material
(windshield sillycone, etc.) while the rotor is still out of its mounting.
Then, you can put it into its mount with just a stub of pig tail to snake
in place. Plug in the upcoming rotor wire and ROTATE to the life of the
rotor or your ham interest , whichever comes first.
