[TowerTalk] waterproofing big #31 clamp-on choke

[Howard Hoyt]

Jim,

I have used a 0.722" ID Fair-Rite p/n 0431176451 mix 31 Snap-It as the 
feedline choke (5 turns of RG-58) on my car for over five years now.  
All that is protecting it is a piece of 3" ID dual-wall adhesive 
heat-shrink tubing.  The ends shrunk down to ~ 0.75" so they are not 
closed up and are oriented vertically so water drains.  It has seen 
blistering sun, sub-zero temps, rain, snow and vibrating for close to 
100K miles and it is still in one piece and working well.
