I think one thing worth doing is to remove the foams when not in
use.

I'll also be prepared with dessicant treatments when/if it
happens again.

If this problem reappears, I'll post the details. Hopefully it
was a fluke.

Actually, I love my Fluke. Best DMM I've ever had.

I've had 2 or 3 condenser mics take direct rain to the point
they
stopped functioning-- they were basically soaked.  I was told to
let
the mic dry thoroughly in open air before trying them again. I
believe one manuf suggested a week. All came back.  I think it
was
Bernie who posted the trick with the silicate bags which could
shorten the time. Rob D.
