My web site that had pictures of the fan plate I made is now gone, but I'll 
send a picture to anyone who wants it.  The photo included a ruler so you 
can approximate the dimensions I used.

The plate fastens under two frame screws and two bottom cover screws, and 
in my case holds a 4-inch computer fan.  With that size fan, you can't get 
the radio into a rack or cabinet with the fan mounted, so I made slotted 
screw holes so you can slide the thing into place under the backed-out 
screws once the radio is mounted.
