Hi Rick...you stateside yet? Gotta cure fer the drifties...my old Omni 6 
plus did a bit of that so pulled the speaker and installed a little pc fan 
to pull in cool outside air that is wired in series with one across the 
final brick heat sink.
Having a lot of fun setting up my Omni 7! Now if only could get the darn 
ethernet port to work....
