Not being a metallurgist I have no business posting on this subject, other than in recalling past experiences with dissimilar metals.
I specifically remember a stainless steel ball-mount quickly digesting an aluminum bumper in the presence of everyday moisture and air. For the price of a few screws from Elecraft (minimal if anything), spending research effort on a few rusty screws seems to me a substantial waste of everyone's time. 73, Kent Trimble, K9ZTV Jefferson City, MO ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
