We shall use waterproof sealant (i.e. that used round the edge or baths) to see round the clip-on cover over the Ethernet port, including drain hole, after putting silica bags inside. We will also put sealant between the central column and the dish itself, so if water collects when the dish is pointing directly up it cannot get into any electronic parts.
