Hi Pete,

Try a large Folger's or similar plastic coffee can to house the device Jim mentioned. You can seal it pretty easy and it will do a good job of protecting the balun. You may even be able to get away with the little can with RG-59...

Like the wiki page and look forward to more info in the future.

"The reason I used beads (aside from having ON4UN's design to go by) 
was that I had a piece of RG-59 and 100 #73 beads, and I figured it 
would be a lot easier to use the beads and wrap them in tape than to 
figure out how to weatherproof two cores and a bunch of windings."
