Roger Roger.... I was thinking of doing the same thing. After noticing this yesterday, I already have a temporary fan positioned on the heat sink. It's not bad in the shack today, but on some days the temp approaches 89F (32C). It was around 82F (27.7C) when I made the measurment. This will continue until I turn on the AC for the Summer. Still in windows open mode right now hi hi.....

Room temp is 23.5C, hottest spot on the heat sink is 58.5C. A rise of 35C over ambient. Your 140F temperature reading is, unfortunately, quite normal. I have considered adding a small fan to the heat sink. These numbers might just prompt me to get off my duff and do so... _________________________________________________________________ Insert movie times and more without leaving HotmailĀ®. http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/QuickAdd?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutori al_QuickAdd1_052009 _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
