[TowerTalk] building a TH-11DX

Well, I finally decided to buy the TH-11DX.  I called Hy-Gain every day for
four days and all I got was voice mail.  Finally bought it from Burkhardt.
Hmmm...hope tech support answers if I need it!

Now for my question...I live on the seashore and have had to rebuild my
KT-34A frequently due to corrosion in the joints.  When I assemble the
TH-11DX should I use whatever goop they have in the box or should I use
Noalox, Penetrox or whatever?  Also, would it make sense to seal all the
joints with a marine silicon sealant to really waterproof the thing?

Thanks for any help you can give on these issues.
