[Elecraft] K3 COOLING VENTS

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

The reason that side feels warm is because the side itself is the heat sink
for the regulators, moving the heat out of the K3 through the metal. 

There's absolutely no problem with the rig feeling warm. In fact, it's good.
It keeps everything inside dry and stable.

     There have been enough posts here about the temperature inside the 
K3 to start me thinking.   Mine also gets very WARM on the right side by 
U12 and U13.  ...  I would like to 
"CROSS VENTILATE" the front area by adding cooling vents, similar to the 
configuration of the speaker vents,  
73's  and  Thanks.
