[Amps] Silver Strap

[Alex]

I am a little afraid of it. In my experience, this is good for a chassis
work, but not for lines carrying RF.

 It seems the preponderance of thinking is it
would be nice to do something rather than nothing,
as corroded copper and brass is unsightly,
while tarnished silver is less repulsive.

There is another choice: Iridium, Mil-Spec
Type-III conductive coating.

This is a very inexpensive plating process, and
we all see high quality electronics chassis works
with that familiar yellow finish.

Most every metal finisher/plater can do Iridium,
and the Mil-Spec upgrade just means a repetitive
coating process.
