I'm pretty sure that I flubbed the connections on the coax that I installed on my J-Pole, and after the first hard storm that it suffered, moisture got into the connections or the coax itself.

My question is, IF moisture got into the coax, is the whole 30 foot length ruined? Or should I be able to salvage it if I cut off say the first foot and reconnect it with a new connection?

Isn't it the NMO that's better for weather protection?
