Since it's for a low frequency application, my first thought was to just 
toss it in a bucket of oil. But that wouldn't fit in the volume I need 
to work with. It would also get messy when I had to move it...
I could put it in a custom fitted oil-tight box but that's way more 
effort than would be FUN to do.
Turkey in oil? You southern boys sure have weird dietary needs....
