I have done this but was dissuaded because of the rusting of the steel conductor (one steel and one copper).  Typically that resulted in bolted connections (like on a ground plate) becoming loose and intermittent.

You could use WD-1A and connect the two conductors together.

I wonder if anyone can tell me what the wire is called that were used in
several military surplus wire antennas. It was like flexweave but was a
bronze copper wire (I thought) and about #22awg or so.  I would like to
find some of this but no clue what it is called let alone a possible source.

Thank you.
