Hi all,
My 37-116 (122) radio puts out a lot of heat from the chassis due to the many
tubes and I suspect the large transformer. I am thinking of placing a 120vac
muffin fan somewhere in the vicinity of the chassis to help with cooling.
Is this feasible and how would I connect an ac outlet so that the fan operates
when the radio is turned on? The fan has an ac plug at the end of a line cord.
Thanks for any ideas.
