Today I let the radio play most of the day. Its the first time I really make it play since I started to fix it up, was nice. After 5 or so hours, the power transformer gets warm to the touch, nothing more.
However, the accumulation of heat from the tubes and transformers makes that the top of the radio gets a bit warm.
Is that usual? I didn't think it would happen, the radio doesn't put out that much heat. Maybe I should add a cooling fan or something?
Seriously, should I be worried about that fact, or is that usual for console radios?
