Interesting, looked up SS-30 and it reads :
SS-30 Antisieze compound for stainless steel, contains pure
metallic copper in a non - melting grease base.
Uses: battery terminals and bus bar connections..

Dont think I would be interested in using copper between my
aluminum antenna joints.  Or grease base for that matter ..
Must be missing something here..
