Can Hi, John -- Since this is a general interest question, I'll post it to TowerTalk. First of all, throw all your cheap electrical tape away. Well, at least don't use it for coax joints. Use only Sc

Once agn CoaxSeal gets an undeserved bad rap. Number one: so what if u can't get it off ur plug, are u gonna use that plug anywhere again that is out of the water? unlikely. Number two: just wrap the

guess that makes you a cracker, Charlie? I use a coaxseal like product on top of an initial tape layer too, it works well to make the transitions on connectors mild slopes insted of steep right angle

Just out of curiosity, what's the opinion on those rubber booties soled by Cushcraft? Couldn't they be used instead of the inner layer of electrical tape? For example, put the bootie over the connect

A disparaging remark was made about Scotchkote not being a very good outdoor electrical tape coating. The reason I mentioned it is because that's what 3M (the manufacturer) recommends. And I always d

You can get most of the same effect with ordinary heat-shrink tubing by running some hot-melt glue round the cable and the connector before you slide the tubing over. A quick zap with the heat gun se

I use the Cushcraft rubber booties for all outside coax joints. They must be slightly cut bigger on the small end to fit over RG-8, but with a little dab of Coax seal at both ends, u hv a great water
