I've been having problems with my rotator, currently stuck due west.  
Today, in order to verify connection from the controller in the shack, I 
cut open the jacket of the good quality 6 x #18 cable at the tower base 
- imagine my surprise when water flowed out of the cut, even though all 
the cable above that point is vertical.
