Hi,

Thanks for help and suggestions, as well as all the help you've provided in
the past. Really appreciate it.

What sealant would you suggest ?
Just gunk up with RTV, or is there something neater and just as effective ?

Coax-Seal... that along with some good black electrical tape.

On the outside of the putty.

FYI If you buy it as 3M Electrical Putty it costs much less.

Gee, that's $10.70 per roll (list)(60" long) vs. the Coax-Seal at $2.99 per roll
(60" long).

How does it cost much less?

3 times wider and twice as thick.

Seems to me the narrower width of the Coax-Seal makes it a bit easier to work with,
though I suppose one could cut the 3M stuff.

I bought 2 rolls of the Coax-Seal about 10 years ago and still have one full roll and
a partial here. The thickness is certainly adequate.
