Thanks a bunch, Garey. That was my thinking exactly. I learned a lot about cooling things from my other hobby, IBM PCs and PC Servers from the early Pentium era. IBM put a lot of thought into drawing air over hot things and exhausting it out of the back of the machine, and it seemed to work pretty well. It was my first real exposure to a cooling system, as opposed to a fan moving air around. 73 -Jim _______________________________________________ Drakelist mailing list Drakelist@zerobeat.net http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist
