I have been using it for many years with no problems. The longest 
undisturbed SO235/PL259 joint was 11 years at the top of a 60' tower 
and when opened it was as clean and bright as when it was put up. I 
usually pack the hole in the SO235 and when the plug is inserted it 
pushes/spreads the grease round the rest of the socket interior.

72,

Peter Linsley, G3PDL
