[1000mp] Mrk V Field Vibrating/Noisy fan

[Dave Jaksa]

Kelly,  

I have a Mark V not the Field so this may not apply.  However, I had a
similar problem after taking to the covers off to install filters.  The Mark
V sounded like it was going to take off when the fan kicked in.  After
removing the top cover again I found one of the internal speaker wires
rubbing against the fan blades.  Moved the wire away from the fan and all is
well.  Hope your fix is this simple.

Hello all,

I did a little research and haven't seen this asked so here goes.

I have a Mark V Field which was recently sent in for some repairs.  I opted 
to send it back to the "point of purchase vendor" instead of Yaesu.  While 
I'm happy with the repairs, something I notice now is that the cooling fan 
seems to vibrate much more (I can actually feel it in the desk) and be a 
noticeably noisier than it was prior to the repair - almost as if it's out 
of balance.

Before cracking the covers off I was wondering if anybody might have 
experienced this before or have an idea or what to look for.

Thanks,
Kelly - N0VD
