How did you weatherproof it with antenna penetrations?

  I put everything in an oven pan then used a LCD screen diffusor panel for the top. I drilled holes in the side of the pan and sealed them with caulk. I did eventually get some water ingress from daily pressure/temp changes + humidity and significant rusting of the bottom of the pan but the elevated wrt54g was operational (if a bit nasty looking) when I took it out after 3 years. If I did it again I'd add some weep/drainage holes to mitigate build up. http://a.superkuh.com/wrt54g-in-oven-pan-with-caulk.jpg http://a.superkuh.com/wrt54g-in-oven-pan-with-caulk.jpg

    I’m surprised the zip ties survived in the sun like that without getting too brittle.

      Making sure you get UV resistant zip ties is key.

        No such thing really, you just get a little more time. Same failure mode is inevitable.
