DAB clock radio broken...any suggestions?

As title says, my DAB clock radio isn't working after I spilt water on it. The clock and alarm is fine, it just doesn't even pick up a signal for either digital or FM stations (or to set the clock which I have done manually).
Its most annoying as I have to wake up to the buzzer.
Any suggestions welcome before I buy a new one (and they have actually seemed to have gone up in price since last year).

Unplug it and put it somewhere warm and dry for a few days (if you can remove the casing do this too), airing cupboard etc. Once it's fully dried out it may work.
However having it switched on / using it straight after you spilt the water will have made it worse.0 -
