I'm not keen on the Precision wave guide adapter, when attached to the feedhorn it lets in water, which gathers if you have cap fitted to keep out the spiders. I have used an O ring before now between the two.
scopus,
Thats a good point about the water ingress especially if a solid feed cap is used.
However, I use the official feed caps that were supplied by Precision, they have small holes in them that allows water to drain out or evaporate but prevent spiders getting in, pics attached below.
You can buy the equivalent caps from Elite Antennas, they fit the Precision Ku feeds as Elite have not changed the design or dimension of the Ku feed. However, like all thing Elite, they are not cheap for what they are (£5 each last time I asked for a price).
