It all comes down to the competance of the installer,
enough said!


Hdmm....lessee....
Mount radome with 4 bolts to radar mount where last one that failed came
off, grease bolts to prevent seizing then sealing bolt holes as best you
can to keep stainless bolts from eating away pot metal threaded holes from
salt air electrolysis...
Install rubber tit drain in plastic box....
Feed cheap plastic molex plug through cheap plastic stuffing tube and
tighten on plastic cable...
Plug cheap plastic molex plug into pins sticking out of exposed PC board
through open slot in pot metal chassis box....
Put flimsy plastic top in little groove with little rubber seal and tighten
only 4 bolts holding it all on that don't seal well.

What did I miss you professional plug swappers wouldn't? Installing this
radome is simpler than putting a stereo in the boat....only one cable....
