Rohn tower hardware is hot dipped galvanized steel.  I'd take their knowledge over any "tower guy" or any other person for that matter.

Remember, your tower and perhaps someones life may depend on your tower hardware, use and installation.

If you are asking about anti-seize, I use Nickle anti-seize on stainless
hardware, even in Aluminum.
What is your environment? Are you near salt water? What are your
temperature extremes?
I am in a dry climate so Aluminum - Stainless Steel galvanic corrosion is
not a big issue.

John:

What is the reason to not use stainless steel if properly rated for the
load?
