I recall that in the past months, the subject of cleaning corrosion from
aluminum tubing has come up. At the time, I had no need, but... I picked up
an old Butternut vertical that I would like to restore and use as a backup
antenna. So..., I would appreciate some input on best how to clean up the 
aluminum crud and warts. My off-hand method would to carefully use a fine
emery paper .
