[Icom] IC-756Pro Heat Issues & Fan Servicing Information

[Ken]

I also was concerned about how warm it runs, then I considered the
electronics under my cars hood, they exist in the worst of humidity and
temperature conditions, run for hours on end at amazingly high temps that
would melt a pro2 and still generally last the life of the car. I thought
about adding cooling fans that run continuously, but they pull in dust,
open any used PC power supply and take a look, the more dust, the less
cooling, the less cooling, the more heat, until  POOF. I just follow
ICOM's design and recommendations and let the fan supplement the
convection air cooling; just a thought, Ken
