The simple solution is an external fan blowing on the heatsink.
If you take a 12v boxer fan and run it off of about 8v, it runs totally
silent, but moves enough air to keep the heatsink cool.

I have noticed that the power suply with my OMNI VI Plus seems to get
extremely hot, even wit hcasual CW operation.
Has anyone else noticed the same? I can barely touch the fins on th eback.
Thanks for any insights.
