Topband: Resistor Protection?

[lew]

This is an easy one after height of  Beverages.  Do you guys protect the 
terminating resistor from the Beverage to the ground rod in a 
unidirectional Beverage?
I mean do you waterproof the resistor and its connections and make it 
all spiffy or do you wrap a single wrap of cheap tape around it once so 
nosy neighbors won't notice it so much and let it be until  nature kills 
it somehow? Maybe what I'm asking is how weather resistant are the 
terminating resistors?
