My guess would be you would spend more energy heating the
oven up drying out the silica gel than leaving the rig on
all the time.
I would just turn it off and cover it up.

The MH2 that I have makes hot connections only to pins 1 and 2 and
ground on pins 7 and 8, so you can use any of pins 3, 4, 5, or 6. If
you have wired the resistor to mic jack pins 6 and 1, then pin 6 is not
usable unless you modify the 5 volt take-off point on the front panel board.
Hello Barry
Since your dipole will be indoors, I would suggest making
it a bit longer, closer to 33 ft.
Run the first 23 feet as you plan, with the feedpoint in the
center. At the ends, let the extra wire extend down 1 foot.
The bring the remainder back toward the center, keeping
the 1 foot
