RE: receiver problems?
For those reading this thread that don't know the purpose of dielectric grease, it is a non-conductive (non-shorting) grease which will keep moisture and OXYGEN away from your connectors. These are the two principal agents that lead to corrosion (oxidation) in your connections. It is used a lot in full scale aircraft to control corrosion in antenna connectors. A little dab will do the job.
