Pathway x2 on top of a slide?

Is it ok to sit my Pathway X2 on top of my slide for the weekend?

I have put Duct tape over my Slide switch and Put pink duct tape flags on the coax and left my ladder set up next to the slide to make sure I don't retract it with it up there.

I'm mainly worried about damage to the slide or if anyone has ever had wind kick up and blow one over and off a slide.

Thanks

    I've put it on top of a slide before. The only issue I encountered was when I put it on top of the bedroom slide... at 3:00 AM when DISH sent an update, it started seeking the proper satellite. A little like R2D2 right above our heads. It's on top of the rig near the rear ladder right now and working fine.

    As long as I can get a good signal, I put a cheap rubber doormat on top near the top of my ladder. Then I bungee cord the satdish to the ladder. I'm reminded to pull it down when I see the coax dangling by my powercord.
