Good Afternoon Gary,

        I have done this in the pass for supplies that were in a damp
environment. The trick is to lower the Humidity to a point were any
moisture in the transformers and chokes seeps out.  I would set the oven
to the lowest temperature you can. Put the supply or supplies in and run
for a few hours. Once done, then remove and let cool. Then do a
continuity check on the winding. Then run them up on a varic.
