your vertical antenna, and mount the RT-100 to it,
with the bracket facing up, and the connectors facing
down.
In order to prevent rain water from running down
the feedline cables and into the connectors, all
connections should be wrapped with self-sealing coax
sealing tape, such as Coax Seal™ sealing tape.
Additionally, drip loops should be constructed via
coiling the coax and zip-tying it into a loop which
hangs below the connectors. The drip loop collects
any water running along the coax, and makes it drip
away from the tuner.
This technique should also be employed where
the coax cable enters the house, to prevent water
from running along the coax and into your house.
Be sure the drip loop hangs lower than the coax
entry point into the house.
