Graeme,

	Thanks very much for the reply.  I checked the antenna ports to be
sure, but I believe there is an internal issue.  It worked fine for =
about 5
minutes until it started to heat up for the first time in a long time.
Guess the downtime got the best of it.   I'll keep you posted and let =
you
know how things turns out.
