> Yesterday, I purchased Noalox at the locl Home Depot. In the past, I
have used Penetrox when assembling HF beams and Penetrox worked great. Has
anyone used Noalox to assemble aluminum tubing on HF beams.
Antioxidants are like toothpastes - lots of varieties and they all do
basically the same thing, just different recipes.
An antioxidant is a bunch of very small particles of a conductive
metal held in suspension in a vehicle material. When the connection is
tightened, the particles pierce the conductor(s) and the vehicle keeps oxygen
out -
thus it's an antioxidant.
BTW there's a great chapter in my UP THE TOWER book that's got lots of
info on a bunch of them. Available from championradio.com.
