[SEDXC] STAINLESS STEEL

[Tom W8JI]

Careful there, Mike.

The last time someone mentioned stainless steel hardware someone on a local 
reflector said it caused corrosion or something, and galvanized or zinc was 
better.

I buy my stainless hardware from McMaster-Carr, and like you everything I 
use (even against aluminum) is a stainless alloy.
