MAE NY?

Well, lets see...

1) Largest minimum operating RH for a communications device that
   I happen to have the specs for is 20%.

2) Smallest maximum operating RH for a communications device that
   I happen to have the specs for is 80%.

3) Static electricity is minimized when RH is at or above 35%.

4) RH below 25% can cause embrittlement of hygroscopic materials
   such as paper.

5) RH above 65% can cause mold growth and metal corrosion.

6) Humans are most comfortable when the RH is between 20% and 60%.

7) RH above 50% in cold weather can cause condensation inside of outer
   walls.

So... perhaps a target humidity somewhere between 35% and 45% would
be ideal.
