I'm one of those people that buys gear and keeps it until it breaks - hence my previous dust cover discussion. But in that thread, I've learned that it is much more common for humidity to cause electronic boxes to malfunction.

Has anyone attributed their older electronics gear to have been 'compromised' by the effects of humidity over the years, and if so -
- on what type of equipment
- what were the symptoms
- were you able to do the repair yourself ?

Thanks in advance,
Joe
