Default I bought a large capacitance hat for my vertical, but the antenna still gets wet when it rains.

You might try a Stetson.

Try a Dunce Cap (low capacitance) attached to your screwdriver and
manually adjust until your dip meter reads moron


Uh oh...feeling a bit testy today???




What good's a hat if it don't keep the antenna dry? I think I'll keep it
though, for some odd reason my SWR's are better.
