Re: [IRCA] Antenna connections sealants

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all of the suggestions.  I understand about keeping 
moisture out and your suggestions will work.  

My main concern is about the connections themselves.  Is there 
something that could be placed directly on the connections themselves 
to act as the last barrier against moisture?  I am wondering because 
in performing PM on my antenna system, I had to re-seat all of the 
banana plugs, coax connectors, etc because the slight surface 
corrosion had coated the metal with a non-conductive layer.  In the 
past, I have used vaseline to coat the surfaces, and that seems to 
work for a while, but it seems to evaporate (or disappears) after a 
while. Is there something better that could be put on the surfaces?
