Hello Norm

 You should probably be looking for another way to mount your antennas. No 
roofer that's any good will tell you to cut holes in a roof that does not leak. 
He knows that if a roof is going to leak it will be at a penetration or a 
valley. If he does the work he also has to stand behind it and fix it if it 
does 
leak. The way it works is the least number of penetrations = the least number 
of 
leaks or problems. Now every roof has some penetrations, but  it still works 
the 
same way. JMHO. Good luck.

Hi all!
Had a nice conversation with a roofing contractor today. He was quite down on 
the idea of poking any holes through the roofing material due to the amount of 
rain at the property (in central florida).
What should I be looking for to properly install ( other than rtfm) and more 
importantly waterproof the installation so that ingress damage can't happen.
Thanks,
Norm
