[TenTec] Omni Body Temperature?

[John Lockhart]

Hi Jim,

Congratulations on your new Omni!

I don't have the TenTec power supply, but my
Omni VI does get warm after a few hours of 
listening.  I've thought of buying a second
bottom cover and putting some ventilation 
holes in it, but that's as far as I've gotten!

73,

John  W0DC
