Before I moved to Texas I lived in Vancouver, B.C., Canada where the weather is very, very wet. In fact, we once had 39 days and nights of constant rain...I was starting to consider building an Ark when the rain finally let up!! Don't let my experience completely dissuade you from trying an electronic ignition system. My experience was over 30 years ago and I'm hoping the manufacturers continue to work bugs out of their systems. The cross-firing in damp conditions is just something to be aware of and be prepared to counter. My system was also one of the first very high spark voltage systems.
I'm just so used to cleaning and adjusting points that it's almost no bother at all. I also always carry a spare condenser with me. Good luck!
CHIMO!
