I use Duct Seal that you can get from an electrical supply store.  About $5 
for a 5 lb block of the stuff.  It works as good as Coax Seal at a fraction 
of the price.  You can also get it at Home Depot/Lowes/DIY, etc.  Hey, if 
it's good enuf for the power company to waterproof power drop connections, 
why not!
