[Antennas] NO OX?

Mark,
I use Penetrox A.  This has been somewhat of a standard product for 40 
years.  This is the same product (as I understand it) Mosley sells for their 
antennas.  They call it Anti-Corrosion Compound.   I bought a Mosley TA 33 
some 30 years ago, and a tube came with it.  Later on, I called Mosley to 
find out what it was and ordered a larger size.  Here's a link to DX 
Engineering and the product they sell.

It does not take much of this product for a typical tribander or other style 
antenna.  My last stock (from Mosley) was about 25 years old, and just 
bought a new squeeze bottle.  It looks identical in color and consistancy to 
the Mosley product.  Anyway, I figure it this bottle will do me !  I'm using 
it to disassemble, inspect and reassemble that same TA33 at a new location. 
Just google up Penetrox A and you'll find many sources.

Hi
     I have been looking for a good electrically conductive silicone grease 
for my antenna joints. I was wondering if anyone has tried NO-OX. If so how 
did it perform? There used to be a grease made specifically for antenna and 
coax connections but I cannot find where to get it. Any ideas are 
appreciated.

God bless,
Mark
