In addition to anchor and running lights, our mast has two GPS antennas and an old radar antenna. One of the GPS antennas is decommissioned and I am replacing it with a SeaWatch antenna to access local over the air TV signals.
Coax cables for the GPS antennas passes out of the mast and into the wings in a channel that is apparently drilled in the wing to the point where it intersects the 1"-14 threaded mount. My plan is to use the old 1" mount to route the cable as the SeaWatch has a coax connection separate from the 1" mount as shown on the photo of its underside.
Is there a gland seal that fits standard male 1-14 threads common to these antenna mounts? Do three mounting holes on ScanStrut seals like the DS21 fit the same 3 holes as the 1" mount? What is the best approach for sealing the point where the cable leaves the wing?
