During the winter I live about 200 meters from the Florida Atlantic
beach. Usually I have windows open, and although the salty sea breeze
is pleasant, it greatly speeds corrosion of metal.
Perhaps a maritime electronics expert could advise me as to whether I
should leave my K2 (and other gear) on all the time, or power off when
not it use. I can speculate that the slightly increased temperature
from leaving it on might prevent some condensation of moisture. On the
other hand, I recall from chemistry classes that increased temperature
accelerates chemical reactions (like corrosion). Are there any other
reasonable precautions I can take?
Thanks
Dick, K0KK
