It's not worth getting the 316.  304 holds up fine; I've seen pieces
left outside for years with no corrosion.  Even in a marine
environment, honestly, I'd expect the salt spray would eat four
antennas before it took out your 304SS mast, though I've not witnessed
saltwater corrosion of 304 myself.

73,
Dan
