King Dome Cover Cracked - Repair ideas?

My King Dome Cover has a large crack which is leading to water drip down the coax line into the coach. During a warm November day in NC I put half a tube of Dicor on it as a temp fix. Now time for a better fix.

Don't use the satellite or even broadcast TV antenna.

So what is my best bet? Remove the entire King Dome apparatus & seal up the holes? Or try to seal the cracked over with silicone? Replace Cover?

Maybe make lemonade out of lemons & put a solar panel in its place? Or a Mini-Split?

A couple days ago the dish randomly turned on & went into seek mode. Pulled the fuse so it stopped. Perhaps the moisture shorted something 🤔

The crack must be right over the coaxial inlet. And if it's enough for you to see or feel the water in the RV, then you should remove it. Especially if your never going to use it. You could always leave the bottom plate on for a future baseplate on an updated wineguard systems. I did and it worked perfectly. Good luck!
