Worst case scenario: using surplus electronics on a commercial fishing boat. If the gear was MFP'd (mil fungus proof varnish treatment) it generally held up fine (eg R 5 ARN 7).  If not, (eg R 65 APN 9)rapid corrosion ensued.

Solution: Liberal does of LPS 3 spray.  Gunky stuff, but it STAYS ON and really works. It isnt pretty, but it isnt corroding either. Never used it on any xmtrs, but it seemed harmless on rcvrs.
