I had one antenna that waterfilled over the years. A good antenna, but
the porus plug had a sticker over it, so it could not vent out the
humidity, so it built up.
My L1/L2 antenna is burried in snow right now, need to put some cover
over it. My L1 Bullet antenna is snow-free, but I seem to have something
wrong with that cable, need to diagnose it again.
In my case, my handywork on BNC connectors have proven less than
satisfactory.
Cheers,
Magnus
