Anti-seize compounds for antenna joints

[Cat Driver]

What about the stuff the electricians use for alum to alum connections in indoor an outdoor connections? Could this stuff be used at the antenna joints to keep the corrosion down where the parts go together?

Also, what about silicone grease where the pl-259 screws on the antenna? When I worked for the cable co. we always greased up the fittings good to keep out water of the fittings and the corrosion down.

Thanx,
Ronnie
