Hi Guys,
A cell phone Tower Tech. gave me some Cell-Tape (C-Tape) for weather
proofing connectors. I used some tonight on a connector and compared
to Coax Seal or #33 Tape and 3M Sealant this stuff was a pleasure to
use. The removal also impressed me, it was also quick and clean. I am
mentioning this product in case you don't know it exists. I would also
be interested in comments from those who have used it. I don't know
how long it has been on the market, so I am also interested in
longevity. Here is the information from the TESSCO Web Site. The
TESSCO number is 360590.

identification are available. CELL-Tape can elongate by three hundred
percent, stretching tight budgets as well as delivering tight protection.
