I am not sure what you're trying to accomplish. I would not solder
anything structural. You can weld aluminum very nicely. I machined a
custom top plate and had it welded to a Universal Tower section. This held
up very well and was much stronger than anything that they sold.

Well, there ARE aluminum towers....
I'm looking at potential uses of aluminum wire for antennae, radials, etc.
and
I think I saw some wisdom here regarding Al soldering.
Does anyone have advice? There are several products available, flux, solder,
but they get mixed reviews, ranging from great to terrible for the same stuff
sometimes!
I'd sure appreciate some real experience!
