My radio has been exposed to moisture on my trip to Canada. It hasn't worked
well since. It is operating OK, only that the command tend not to respond to
pressure. I do not dare to open the set while I have been told it's quite
intricate a thing. I can see small water drops on the internal side of the
display window. It seems that after been put into warm on on the very top
position some water has apparently evaporated. Does anybody has an idea?

My advice would be invest in some silica gel packets, actrivate them,
and the put the radio, with the silica gel packets into a sealed
plastic bad, and try to keep it toasty warm.. About 110F for several
days. The 110F greatly increases the vapor pressure of water, but is a
temperature low enough that it is not going to do any damage to the
radio itself. The silica gell will absorb the water vapor, and after a
few days, the inside of the radio should be bone dry.

Depending upon exactly what got wet, and what it got wet with, that
may or not fix the problem however...
