Hey, all.

I am sure this will sound very elementary to some on the list, but you guys 
are a tolerant group with lots of good Elmering, so here goes:

In a last-ditch effort to troubleshoot the screw-driver HF antenna on my RV, 
I'm going to carefully examine the feed line for any problems.  There are 
also two round lug terminals on the antenna end of the feed line that I'm 
also going to replace.  One of the terminals is secured by a small round 
screw to the radiating element of the antenna, while the other screw secures 
the round terminal lug that goes to ground.

Tonight, we were out at the RV briefly, and I checked the original round 
lugs on the feed line, and, despite my best efforts to protect them, they 
still felt corroded to me.

So, my question is this:

How does one best protect round terminal lugs that are subjected to outdoor 
conditions from corosion?

I had used a small can of liquid tape from, I think, Lowes, but I honestly 
am not sure it did the job adequately.

Any suggestions would be helpful, and, of course, I'll let everyone know how 
things turn out this week-end, when I'm out at the RV and have time to do 
the work.
