I have several hundred PacWireless 21/25/26/29db grid dishes out (some for 5 years+- ~) and have had only one that had water at the antennas Nf feed horn fitting. This was just last week and when we lowered the whole antenna and jumper I found out that my previous climber had installed a PolyPhaser at the antenna and not at the box. I attribute the water due to poor weatherproofing at the PolyPhaser since I have never had an issue with the PacWireless grids or solid parabolic dishes.
