eg. the folded dipole, terminals and the neck to the coax from the balun.Do NOT use ordinary silicon sealant on anything metal and check if it is compatible for sealing rubbers and plastics against water entry - say the balun - and the combiner on the mast if you also have a TV antenna or two - that all run into a single distribution path!
