61C is not "very warm" it is too hot to touch. How does it compare by
finger with the other unit? My K3 with sub RX regularly runs at 36 > 37C.
Turn the K3 off, let it cool, turn it on with the FP temp display on,
how does it compare with room temp.

I just received a new K3 S/N 7604. I am noticing the front panel is running
very warm. It has the second receiver installed so that might be a reason. I
have another K3 without the second receiver and it is very cool with a reading
of 36 C for the front panel but the new one is showing 61 C. The static PA
temps compare. Is this a normal range for the K3 with a second RX? The radio
are the same other than the 2 nd RX. Maybe some input from other users with
the second RX. 73 Mike K4PI
