I find that BAIC is the closest NASIOC chapter for us. At least we share a lot more in common w/ Sacramento/Bay Area than we do with say Flagstaff.

It's really not a big deal baking them. It is intimidating doing it for the first time, but once it's done, it's really not bad. Just make sure they are sealed up tight once you put them back together, or they will get condensation inside them, and you gotta take them apart again to clean them.
