Subject: [aprssig] Arizona Heat/Electronic Equipment

Hi All
I will be in Arizona for this years DCC.

Is it safe to leave electronic equipment in a parked car in Arizona during
the September time frame? Such as laptops, CD's And HT's.

No I am not asking about the possibility of the equipment being stolen. I
am asking because I am concerned about the heat that the equipment would be
subjected to while the car is parked and the AC is off.

Thank you for your time in reading this.

Let us hope we never witness the "Silence Of The Hams"

According to the current extended forecast, highs will be in the upper 80s
to very low 90s.  And as always, it is a dry heat!

What part of Arizona?  It is a pretty big state.  I am about 30 miles from
the Arizona stateline and I am considering turning my heater pilot light
back on.  I have been using the heater in the car more than the a/c lately.
Once you get into the higher elevations, Arizona can cool off quite a bit.

I have spent time in Las Vegas, NV, in 110 degrees.  I never worried about
the gear in the car.  Never had a problem with it.  Sometimes an LCD
display will darken, but it recovers,  If it doesn't look like rain, leave
a window cracked open.  Makes it nicer for humans, too, when you return to
the car.  Get a sun reflector to put in the windshield when parked in the
sun.  I am not sure it keeps the interior that much cooler, but it prevents
a hot steering wheel and shades LCD panels.
