Anyone out there with KLM antennas with the polarity switch care to
comment
on whether you have put a housing on the switch to protect it from the elements? It looks like the relay has silicon around the base but it just grates me the wrong way to have a circuit board with a power connection
and
components exposed to the elements.
Maybe it has not been an issue but I'd care to hear of anyone experiences. If anyone has built up a housing and have pictures or directions, please pass them along

Hi David, K6CDW
I have put a waterproof plastic housing on the switch both for the KLM 2M-14C and KLM 2M-22C In a separate email I have sent to you a zipped file with several pictures depicting the above modification.
