Hung Out to Dry, Working Fine

The following is an excerpt from the actual letter Andrew sent BioSonics following this incident:
"G'day, Just a quick note to let you know my DT-X that was submerged in the January floods here in Bundaberg for nearly 2 weeks came out of the experience in working order. I took your advice and thoroughly dried and cleaned it and all was good... Attached is a photo of the DT-X unit and ToughBook when they were retrieved. As you will see there was a lot of silt, But there was only water and a little silt inside the DT-X surface unit."

Residents of Queensland, Australia, in January 2011 experienced some of the worst flooding in over 50 years. Floodwaters rose across a vast area in Australia's northeast, inundating 22 towns, forcing 200,000 residents out of their homes, and closing a major sugar export port. The level of destruction was catastrophic with three-quarters of the state of Queensland declared a disaster. When the waters receded, a thick layer of mud and silt was left behind that is expected to take years to cleanup.
