I recently purchased an Antenna Genius 8x2 and would like to mount it outside on the side of my house rather then run the coaxes into the house. Any one mount theirs like this and have a recommendation for a weatherproof enclosure.

    The key part of mounting outside is not necessarily 'waterproof'.

    You want to make it hard for water to get in and easy for water to get out.

    Since water seems to fall mostly in a downward direction 99.9% of the time, if you shield it from rainfall, you should be just fine.

    As an example, we had a switch partway up a tower in a plastic box with no bottom. It was there for over 10 years with no issues experienced.
