[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1078634, member: 176704"] Whilst s/a tape is pretty good, it can be tricky to get completely around the connectors on the bottoms of LNB's (or, worse, twins or quads/quatros) or, especially, DiSEqC motors (not that the latter seems to be case in Zappas204's case) when you have big hands like me! BTW, cold weather makes s/a tape more difficult to bond & seal - experience!:-doh. In such situations, spray-on "liquid rubber tape" (check your usual search engine) is invaluable - had to use that today to seal the connectors on the 2x Alsat motors when I refitted the cables after I removed the temporary cross-over cables installed a few months ago to ensure I could get access to the 1.2m Gibby from both the "office" and the lounge via a Smart Priority Switch (Great "gadget"!). Edited: PS: even with a rubber boot over a connector, an overspray with liquid rubber tape could help in the longer term. [/QUOTE]
