John:
Ive never sealed an outside coax connector only with filled HS tubing.
But let me offer this suggestion: Wrap the connector with electrical tape such
as Scotch 33 or 88, THEN apply the tubing. At least the goo won't stick
directly to the connector and you ought to be able to remove all the material
with little if any trouble should you need to re-enter the connector.

Subject: [TowerTalk] FLooded shrink tubing?? Can you remove it??
I saw that Roger, K8RI, used heat shrink tubing with "sticky goo" inside
for his coax connections. I've got a supply of that from my days at the
local utility. We used it for PERMANENT underground splices.
Has anyone (Roger??) had experience removing that heat shrink from a
connection? I'm about to put up a tower with three antennas on it and
was planning on using "coax-seal" but that heat shrink would be better
but I've never had to remove it before.
