I had the ame problem with my FT416. The connector
came loose while providing communication assistance
for one of the public events here. Just tightened the
nut in the field. Got back, opened up the nut, cleaned
the threading (non greasing) and assembled it back
again. So as to weather proof and reinforce it, a thin
layer of araldite was used. Never had any problems so
far. The good thing about araldite is that it is clear
and does not look too obvious.
