I M an idiot.

I just discover it's full of snow ... Was running and everything.   Snowed overnight and -5 temps.   Couldn't tell if the board was working or not.

Unplugged everything and brought it inside to melt and dry out.

Argh !!!!

jnealand:
Been there done that, but in my case I only had overnight condensation and the show was not running at the time.  Still using that controller.

tbone321:
And it was about 70 degrees here today.

smeighan:
I did this last year, had rain on a controller (falcon hub). I disconnected it, drained water. put in over at 170 degrees to dry it out. vacuum oven would be better. After an hour, plugged it back in, still working one year later.

taybrynn:
These stories are encouraging!    It may have been a blessing that it was so cold, as there was no liquid, just  pure ice crystals and flakes.   It's dry now, just need to give it a whirl and cross my fingers !
